It has to be the Soo. Not just because they were awarded the Milwaukee Road (I'm a die hard fan), but because of the "rotten pumpkin" paint scheme that they promptly applied to the locomotives, and the no trespassing/no railfanning signs that were posted at the depots and yards after the take over. I got kicked out of the Portage (WI) depot where I went to try and take photos of Milwaukee Road equipment, and never really went back. It was much different in the Milwaukee days, when my Dad and I spent many hours wandering the entire Portage yard and knew most of the crews who ran through the area. All the proposed Soo/Milwaukee logos seemed to disappear right after the takeover as if the Milwaukee never existed.
