BO 3735 - Baltimore & Ohio (Chessie System)  Contributor's Pick!       
Unmarked photo - no date, location or photographer listed for this 1970 EMD built GP40 but it wears a fresh coat of paint. Mike Woodruff makes a good point (see comment below) that the date must be after June of 1973. The separation of B&O & WM from C&O changed slightly in 1976 to a more unified Chessie scheme so I'm placing the date for this paint scheme around 1974-75.

Mike Woodruff General To the best of my knowledge, the first locomotives painted in this scheme were B&O 4100-4162, built on EMD order #7365 and delivered starting in 8/72. George Ellwood has a pic on his site of the 3735 still in blue at Allentown PA in June '73. 3/1/2020 2:27:34 PM
