VFPX 2631
Title:  VFPX 2631
Description:  Ex-Zacky CF7 2631 sits idle in Traver, CA. The unusual horn cover is to keep people from stealing the horn. There have been several locomotive horns stolen from units parked outside of a yard or in an unsecure area. The SJVRR covers their horns as well, but leave only the trumpet exposed.
