I found a few for you:

Keep in mind that Amtrak also had many units still painted for their prior owners:

These are former Santa Fe F7s that Amtrak picked up, but haven't been repainted yet. One more thing: Amtrak also had (until recently) some ex-New Haven FL9s. These look similar to F7s, but have a 3-axle rear truck and could also run off third rail electricity. I don't think any FL9s were painted in the 1st Gens scheme though.

These two links should do the job for you....make sure you scroll down each of them, they are rather long. The second link has the greater variety on it.

To aid in your own searching, I found both of these through google.com . In the search window I typed in amtrak+f7a and got hundreds of hits.
