<P mce_keep="true">Well, if Ed is old school, I'm no doubt older school. In 1947 I hired out on the GM&O in Bloomington, IL, shortly after they had acquired the Alton which ran through my home town. The Alton scheme was a little muddy and the brighter colors the GM&O used in repainting were very eye-catching. They even applied it to the Rebels, IIRC.</P> <P mce_keep="true">I left the railroad after 5 years but still like that scheme the best. That all red GM&O repaint reminded me too much of the original Rebel scheme. Guess I'm just a Dangyankee at heart [:)]</P>
