Your picture is a tiny sloppy blurry at numbers, horns, right edge roof and dual lights the cab.

Almost looks like a GP9 cab on a GP38.

GP38-2 with no sight glass

hosted on rrpicturearchives without identification of the photographer in the black line/box at the bottom of the image...

I like the font of the number on the cab though...it's different...

[Railnut]

Those are all good guesses..Matt, I didn't notice the lack of a sight glass..but no, those are not what i was looking for, feel free to try again.
NOTE..she still has the same numbers on the cab sides from when she was built.

Top beam of the headlight is burnt out.
OR COULD IT BE.......... the lack of a spacer car inbetween the tanker and engine.

[sd70accsxt700]

My next guess was the rubber bands holding the top of the hood together

[Railnut]

Way off dane..go back to looking at the cab.....muhahahaha!

hmm...upon closer inspection, it looks like part of the hood might've been replaced...specifically, the section that's a much lighter shade of blue than the rest of the blue parts...or possibly the fact that the pic was taken in Mississippi...

I noticed the door on the front of the cab didn't have a handle....looked at it closer and it looks like there isn't a door!

[sd70accsxt700]

Other than the horn is black, you got me I see nothing out of the ordinary.

[sd70accsxt700]

GP the door is on the conductors side. I can see the door.

[Railnut]

LMAO..nope...wonder when the last time the batteries on the engine have been checked????
Dave C

[BerkshireKid]

All-weather seal on the door leading to the fireman's side? Other than that i'm stumped!!!

[sd70accsxt700]

If thats a clue, I dont get it. There dosent appear to be any MU cable connections also, unless they are under the anticlimber

[RailCanon]

There's no door on the engineer's side though...

[GreatLakesRailfan]

LMAO..nope...wonder when the last time the batteries on the engine have been checked????

Is there something wrong with the battery box? Looks like it's got a bit more blue in front than other 5800 series locos might've had...

[sd70accsxt700]

Good God Charles I think you have it old chap. If not I am really confused

[Railnut]

Ok..another clue..LOOK AT THE PAINTWORK
