At least one of the GP20Ds got the red and gray CORP paint scheme. Most are still in the CEFX blue.

It is the old Railtex Scheme.

 

CORP was created by the shortline conglomorate Railtex. Rail America bought Railtex and Corp never changed colors.

Although, there recently (relatively) acquired GP20Ds are all in leaser blue as far as I know. Or some of them still are.

However, that all may change, because Rail America is up for Sale. G&W and Watco are two of the main bidders, so CORP could simply become part of Portland and Western and get G&W orange.

It, and a few other roads, wear a red and grey scheme. I know CORP is owned by rail america, but that isn't rail america's scheme. Who's is it?
