I understand what it is/was for, but with all the attention to detail that
has been paid to creating Heritage paint schemes and the restoration of the
J, it would seem that someone would have found a way to move or cover the

see/photograph the line up). It just struck me as a low-class move on the
part of those putting on the event to leave it in plain sight.
