Now you got me thinking.... **Eyes the spray can of Blue paint and some decals.. <br /> <br />I suspect that costs to paint motive power is probably charged off as Company expenses come tax day. So the more money they can spend on the loco's paint the more they can show off and perhaps get a break on taxes. <br /> <br />I never really thought of this before but I do know a rusty green Penn Central engine (Sorry PC fans just a random pick of fallen flag road name) does not conduct to a good impression unless said loco is preserved as a muesum or living history. <br /> <br />Some paint schemes should really have been left on the drawing board. It seems as if the powers that be were on a dream in the night when they conjured some of these very complicated schemes designed to make engine painters weep with frusteration and rage.
