Shouldnt it be BN 8079 since its not patched and still has Burlington Northern painted under the cab?

during the time frame the picture was taken the very first renumbering was beginning to be seen across the system...patching at this time was typically done when the new numbers of any class of loco were in conflict with an existing nuber,otherwise the BNSF at the time let them be...furthermore,the company was indeed BNSF at the time the photo was taken and therefore I chose to label it BNSF
