Why would we take a perfectly good SP 2-6-0 and bastardize it into something it never was and never will be.....

That was the argument when it was lettered the way it is (was).

While I am not the guy who makes these decisions, I'd like it say 'SOUTHERN PACIFIC", I will be happy with "SAN LUIS & RIO GRANDE" and the La Veta Pass Route herald.

The above lettering style is pure crap, and it doesn't really fit on the coal bunker either.
