    Do you mean solid orange? GWI lines also have yellow and black. Chicago South SHore is orange, but with a (maroon?) stripe.

    ???? 47????

    Hmmm. 47th State is way west and south of the area in question. 47th Parallel is well to the north. Any highway numbered 47 would be a north-south route. Wow. I can't think of anything railroad using the number 47.

    47??? (Hold on, I think I figured out what you meant there)

    I figured it out be simple to find a road that uses orange locos from one builder, but it seems that I am wrong so far.

    the #47 is actually related to one of its internchange partners. (and the answer to that is literally a couple clicks away) ;)

    this railroads main and possibly only customer is a cement plant.

    Bill got it!

    Boxcab if your'e still wondering, #47 was a reference to Contest #47, the Lousiville and Indiana Raiload that the SIND Interchanges with.

    Argh. Have been busy trying to help a member, and also spending hours sorting through some Old Time Radio shows. Contest concentration powers not good today. :(
