There are several train borders if you want to be a little more subtle.

For example, I found this one at Lowe's


but they have others, and I think I saw one with the Warbonet paint scheme.

Do you know that the Santa Fe livery you're contemplating is commonly called the "warbonnet"? That could help you to Google it on the internet.
