Also remember: not only was there some latitude in painting and lettering, according to which shop was doing it, there was considerable longitude in time as they got around to it. There would be long periods when several generations of paint schemes would be running together, perhaps on otherwise identical locomotives.

I think this was to avoid having to remove the door handles to apply the stencils. Blake D. Tatar Custom painting, repairs and modifications of model railroad equipment. Brass a Specialty.
