Here it is: <br /> <br />There will be 5 units, MP, WP, CNW, SP, and MKT. MP will be Blue scheme, WP is in New Image (***ized with the silver trucks though). CNW will be Lightning Strike, MKT will be Green and Yellow (I am told also a ***ized scheme). I was not told what scheme the SP unit will be. There will be no DRGW. <br /> <br />UP is hoping to have 3 of the units there on Saturday for the unveiling. <br /> <br />These are NOT Military decorated units as some are speculating. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Hmm I wonder why no DRGW unit but one for SP . . . <br />[/quote] <br />According to what has been written at and on www. altamontpress.com/railnews, website for August 1,2005,there IS a DRGW locomotive that is to be painted,along with MP,WP,CNW,MKT,and the SP.From what I am guessing,UP is doing this so that they can get a licensing fee from anyone,whom is using any logo that is now part of the UP.Theres a lawsuit in the courts now about this,July 29,2005 news at altamontpress.com.Opionionly,if the UP thinks that this is going to favor for them in all court cases................2 words Union Pacific, [censored][censored] [banghead] it aint gonna work!! <br />[/quote]Don't start counting all of your chickens before they all start to hatch. Just one Question id like to ask.......Just why is the Union Pacific the only one who is raving about this whole Licenceing thing anyway's? Why are the BNSF,NS and of all things the CSXT being all Quiet about all of this anyways? Why arn't they (BNSF,NS,CSXT)sturing the pot also? Allan.
