The locomotive is passing a beach full of people. In this picture you can clearly see that the B-unit and the "Super cheif" indianhead is in the right direction with indianhead pointing forward. This was ofcouse how the Santa Fe company wanted it to look like, and with the combination of one A-unit and one B-unit it usually did. When added more locomotives, A or B-units, or changing/splitting up units to put in a new group of units, the indianhead sometimes ofcouse ended up "backwards". But as said, this was very unusual in a A+B combination. To the point! The right-combination pre-production M 37622 showed in News-1998 was mysteriously changed when going in to serial production. 37622 was sadly released with a "backward" B-unit. That is a mystery to me, and i guess for the Super Cheif too.
