IHB 2163 - Genset loco |
| Description: |
As the two IHB genset units take off, the chameleon-like "Z" stripe actually starts showing its true green color. At different times it looks black, much like the Pennsy dark Brunswick green used on the GG1's could change colors depending on the angle of the light. |
