 Allow me to translate the above.... Conduter 4456 would like to know if METRA is going to repaint the F40PH's in the same paint scheme as the MP36's..  He was telling me this afternoon that he read that METRA had plans to do that...

no, the units are being repainted into the same blue and red that they already wear. #100 should have arrived back on the property within the past several days following overhaul at Progress Rail in Mayfield,KY. Its in fresh blue and red.
