NW 1776 questions:

[NW Mailing List]

Gene,
 
Please keep in mind that the blue on the nose is NOT the correct color. I  
do know that 1776 is the unit's original number.
 
Thanks,
 
Richard D. Shell

I'm  createing a page highlighting a photo of N&W 1776 at the  VMT.
http://www.genebowker.com/fading-glory in my Railroads 101  series.

I want to improve the information on the page, so I have  a few questions:

1) Was the SD45 renumbered to 1776?
2)  When was the unit repainted? Was this done in Roanoke?
3) When was the unit  officially retired?
4) Who is the official owner of the  unit?

Thanks in advance as always for the help!
