RE: [LV] LV-RR RS-11

Bill:

 

The Steckler book, referenced by John Blend, is definitive, the ultimate authority on LV diesel paint and lettering schemes.

I'm doing some research on the PRR leased LV RS-11s, cab numbers
7640-7644, 7648 & 7651. I have yet to find images of any two units
that look the same. Some have pilot stripes, some have the flag logo vs. the diamond, some have nose stripes etc. The only two that look pretty similar are 7640 & 7644. Does anyone have any knowledge about these paint schemes or images?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Bill
