I like Canadian Pacific's old Tuscan and gray scheme - classic!

The Union Pacific is a classic that seems to work well on anything.

I like the SP Black Widow

#2 WP silver and orange.

I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.

I don't have a leg to stand on.

I'm obviously partial to the PRR but I think Mopacs passenger scheme of light gray and blue is exceptional and if you asked the general public I'd bet the farm on the ATSF passenger war bonnet scheme on F units as first choice.
