Nah, you’re just practicing for your distinctive Guilford Rail haze. Just hang in there for a decade

Looks like B&M used water colors on 1556! How does that kind of weathering happen, especially when the maroon on the cab looks sort of OK? Web search shows that 1556 got the blue dip some time before 1970. Apparently unit was scrapped by Guilford in 1989.
