Respondek recently painted a SD40-2 in Illinois Terminal paint and markings for a presentation for the Illinois Terminal Historial Society. The ITC paint, markings and road number were originally worn by an SD39. I guess some might consider this SD40-2 with ITC paint and markings a prototypical foobie? I guess Respondek already had a SD40-2 on hand and didn’t want to make the effort to acquire a SD39, which are few in number since only several dozen SD39s were built.
Looks fantastic to me, that color is unique to say the least.

I had a 76 Cutlass in that color! Man I miss that car!!! Kevin
One thing about it, it would be hard to miss that locomotive.
