Railpictures.ca - Paul O'Shell Photo: While wandering around the old roundhouse and shop area near the Aberdeen Yard back in July of 1975 I came across a nice clean TH&B 57 taking a break from switching duties. TH&B 57 is an SW-9 from GMD in London, ON with serial number A-123 built in December 1950. Information I have gathered suggests it was sold back to GMD in London, ON in May of 1989. There’s those plug-in marker/class lights again! | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

57 was the first one to be repainted. Maybe what you are looking at is new paint.Can’t remember when it was painted.
