Here is the spec sheet for the Class 125 locomotives. Sharp eyes will notice the locomotives were painted Black with Gold lettering and "Bright Red" rods. It is important to note that painted rods were in vogue around the turn of the century in the US. Some railroads such as the Central Pacific were fond of red paint on the rods, others like the Union Pacific preferred black (Yes this includes you South Park fans!).
