The worst has to be the early Conrail patch painted ex PC locomotives which were just black and dirty, with white numbers, and a small stencilled CR the size of the numbers.
You'd have start early in the morning to think up a worse scheme than that!

Which railroad(s) do you think have the worst paint schemes? I number 2 pick is NS, with its plain black and white locos, and the worst is the Union Pacific with the all-yellow stuff. I considered it a huge improvement just with them adding the flags and eagles to it, though it's still ugly. What do you guys think?
