What was the UGLIEST paint scheme 2

[jguess733]

I think the worst ever was the scheme the Rock put on E-8A #652 for the Bi-centinial celebration. It's extreamlty ugly.

GTW is the ugliest out there. it just looks like a cheap tyco locomotive paint job.

a very close second is the BNSF heritage 1 and 2 paint schemes. the more i see them, the worse they get.

Iowa Interstate has some funny looking paint jobs.

Quebec North Shore and Labrador is as bad as Family Lines/Seaboard System. Anemic looking grey, yellow, and orange.

They're more commonly known as Vomit Commets [:)][:D]. I personally like them, but that's just me.[:)]

Hope you're not talking about the Go-Mo's two-tone red-that was a good-looking scheme!

The L&N's solid blue E-8s were terrible.

I saw a really ugly one the other day. a plain grey ( GP38...GP40 ? ) on the Oklahoma City Sub of the Union Pacific. artound Yukon on the heard of a short auto train. I saw it from a distance, so I could not make out any reporting marks. i also hate: conrail, B&O, GM&O, SP, csx, and WP green.

I'm going to walk on the line of getting hung but I'm going to say the GN "Sky Blue" paint sceme. It wasn't really bad in it's own right, but after the nice colors GN wore for years, it was a let down.

Here's my list of Worst/Best schemes,

Worst-Ugliest
1) Missouri Pacific- In UP colors!
2) C&O Chessie- Cat Scheme- good colors for a drag car
3) Penn Central- They could have came up with something better
4) BNSF- Out of all those great railroads combined, they still can't make up their mind on a paint scheme. Just leave them with their orginal paint schemes! NP,GN, CB&Q etc.
5) ACL- their purple days!
6) N de M- Yuck


Best/Good Paint Scheme
1) MissourI Pacific- Dark Blue 'Screaming Eagles' Scheme
2) Western Pacific- Silver/Orange
3) Rio Grande- Two colors, It works!
4) SP/SSW- I'm a SP fan, I grew up on Grey/Red. Simple and Basic
5) Santa Fe- Warbonnet Silver/Red
6) Montana Rail Link- Reminds me a little of MOPAC
7) Burlington- Red and Grey, also the Zephyrs silver scheme

BNSF....Just hate those ugly dash 9s

[PennsyHoosier]

BNSF generally and the Barf Bonnett in particular. UGH! Coming up close behind is the UP.

[boomer5344]

I say the late Rock Island baby blue/white "the Rock" scheme is awful
#2 would be the WP green and orange "peas and carrots" scheme
#3 the failed SPSF merger scheme
followed by the early plain-jane PC,Conrail,CSX and NS efforts
a lot of the semi-streamlined steam efforts were pretty crazy looking too!
