When Amtrak began operations in 1971 they had to get used locomotives from the railroads rather than buy brand new ones. These included a group of FP7’s and F7B’s from the Southern Pacific and some F7B’s from Burlington Northern. They weren’t able to paint all of the SP’s FP7’s right away and just used simple patching on some units, like #118, to mark the units as Amtrak property. Some B-units, like #399, received the pointless arrow while others received simpler paint jobs.
