Based on the ad in the Apr'09 GR,  pg13  --- Yes !!

It looks like they all do, but for the painted/unlettered unit !

BUT then if you look at this pic (via  resellers website)  not white-walled

So which one came first, the pic acquired by the reseller,  or the pic supplied to GR probably over 2 mon. ago !   

hmmmmm,

The painted, unlettered version has white walls.



But not any more.



Removed most of the white trim. Too much white for my taste.  It was remove the white walls or add mud flaps. ::)

Shucks JdM if it had been twilight when the 'crew' had been caught on camera I would have REALLY  thought it was a olde time tagging crew,  contemplating how much time they should spend on such a blank 'canvas'  !   

The railway is lucky to have just gotten off with darkened wheels  vs  the early 20th centurty vers. of graffiti  . . . . .  must have been that one-eyed mutt that sped things up  !    ;)

Engine looks good  . . . .  maybe yr or two in the future pick one up (a fantasy loco for a fantasy free-lance Rwy) .

nite,
