Perhaps they were power short and needed 1723 on the road. It is a little more involved and time intensive to apply these decals than on one of our scale models.

I think 1872 had the end chevrons at too flat of an angle in its 1962 version, ran for a period after 1974 with the wide sill stripes and screaming eagle medallions and no end chevrons only to get the wide version at the same wrong angle as before.
