Steve's photo of the 3152-3153 was taken about 4 months after the units were overhauled for yard service and repainted, so they're still nice and shiny. If you saw Steve's photos of the 3116 shortly after it arrived in Eugene for hump service, it's shiny too. In Steve's later photos you can see how the units acquired a typical amount of yard engine grime, especially on horizontal surfaces such as the cab and hood roofs.
