After living in Norfolk for almost 15 years off-and-on and seeing the coal trains every day, I really like the NS black paint scheme. Sure, some folks say it's because black paint is cheaper (really? I thought the cost of paint had to do with its protective and weatherproofing qualities, not color), but black and white is also cleverly simple, which goes back on Eads's philosophy of "Less is more." Nobody faulted Johnny Cash for wearing black. Maybe UP should paint their Challenger in UP yellow (Ugly puke?), just so those people who don't like black won't have to complain about the color of that locomotive..
