Hi all!! I would like to ask just how many of you actually like UP's new scheme? So far I have talked to two people on the net and am in agreeance with them that UP should re-evaluate their decision! I mean, the 'Flag' scheme looks OK... if it was just on a certain batch of loco's(Just SD70M's or something). But putting it on every loco you can get your hot little hands on is going to make things very boring!! One of the people that I spoke to said that the scheme (for him) had already become boring! I think if UP had left the billboard lettering on and put only a small flag on underneath it... then it would look really good! But in my opinion they have wrecked what was the best scheme ever. WHY FIX SOMETHING IF IT IS NOT BROKE!!! I love the UP and model it in the Summer of 1996(Thank God!)but the thing that is scaring me is that in a couple of years time all model factories, when they bring out new models of UP loco's are going to only do this FLAG scheme!! I can paint my own....but of late am not finding the time! Do not forget,people, that all UP locomotives that come in for either a service or overhaul, will now be painted into this scheme. So tell me ...am I panicing for nothing and do you think that KATO,ATLAS and all the others will still bring loco's out in the old scheme? I would love to here some imput on this subject from you lovely people...exspecially from the staff of MODEL RAILROADER.( If you are not too busy). Maybe someone could allay my fears! Thanks. terrythomson2001@yahoo.com.au
