Is it my imagination or is that white plow bottom edge higher than most other locos?  After the Star's incident the other day makes me wonder?

A fugly schene for a fugly engine

I mean, it's a locomotive.  Pretty much different varaitions of a box.

I don't think it's too bad. Just wish they'd go back to the old arrow logo, but whatever. 

It's been fun.  But it isn't much fun anymore.   Signing off for now.

Lithonia Operator

This article has that same photo, but the front of the engine is not blocked by that annoying red text block.

I like the scheme. It's handsome. I'd prefer if they didn't have the big red areas on the front, but I guess that's a good safety feature in regards to grade crossing visibility, etc.

 

It looks good.  Thanks for posting.
