Reply to "Long hood forward?"

Very interesting! So it sounds like long hood forward was more typical than short hood forward. I assume that Railroads ran this FM Trainmasters long hood forward as well.

Just a quick and possibly overly general observation.  Seems like long hood forward was uses mostly in the east and short hood forward in the mid-west and west.

Wabash, NKP, CB&Q, IC, UP, SP, NP, MP, AT&SF, Milwaukee, C&NW and others ran GP's and SD's short hood forward.  As did Seaboard, FEC and ACL in the "east."
