THAT looks promising. Wish the nosepiece actually came in red. Can you post a view that is more sideish instead of nose on? Note that in Lego Loco there is an all red loco on the cover that uses that nosepiece... (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I'm gonna go by what someone else said. Since it appears in at least one other set in a different theme introduced the same year, not necessarily designed for the train line. (In an argumentative mood today) (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Now there's a less than experienced comment. You name a color scheme, no matter how ugly, and I can name a real railroad that used it. Especially restricted to white black red yellow blue... that's easy. That's a dare, by the way. (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.trains)
