Yes I'm pretty sure now that it had the black stripes on the roof like they had with the Fe in the opening day pic on my build page and white around windows and does where the white was but the old lady said they were diamonds. Later when proper signs were used they went to more mundane schemes in acrylic paints and dots replaced with black.

Great pics, thanks Dave!

(that last one might be very early 60's though; check the FB behind the FE taxi...)

Alex ... you are spot on ...again !!!

... pause the video at the desired still ... press "print screen" (which copies image) ... go into "Paint" , "Edit" , "Paste" and "Save as" ... then I crop and adjust in  my preferred photo editing program ... Canoncraft ...  (My scanner) ...

Regards , Dave
