According to the main NS roster, she's a plain ol' C40-9, so I think somebody at Chattanooga wasn't thinking when she got repainted into Horsehead... a pretty interesting catch, though! Always nice to have a bit of a rarity among the Dash 9's.

I figure some one made a mistake and yes its good to have a rarity out there gives you some thing to look for.

I'm inclined to agree. I would think that the wide nose configuration would be easier to restore than this config. And this looks factory-fresh metalwork.
