Those are E7's in their original as delivered, "Citrus Scheme."

This is one of the truest color renditions that shows the green shade in Seaboard's citrus scheme, although the exposure needed for the green lightened the orange a little bit. In the original diagram, the roof was yellow as well, but it was impossible to keep clean, so SAL added the green there. This must be a full repaint however, as evidenced by the "dip" in all the striping just aft of the numberboard.

If I am not mistaken, E-7's only came with square portals, not round. I think round was exclusive to E-8's and 9's. Feel free to correct me however, I have made at least one mistake prior, great shot though!

The Orange Blossom Special paint scheme if memory serves. I sure wish it had lasted longer. Thanks for resurrecting it Tom.

Wow, you don't see many color pics (this one may be the first for me) of the Citrus scheme!! Very rare indeed.
