The photo is great...the paint scheme just looks horrible (or at least to me it does). I guess leave it to UP to ruin two great paint jobs, not really looking forward to the MKT or C&NW paint jobs that are rumored to be coming

I think UP was going for the older look that Mopac had before Jenks resorted to an all dark blue with 2 white chevrons on the nose, and the buzzsaw logo or "screaming eagle" on the side. I kinda wish UP would've done this unit that way, but you know, one unit commemorating the Mopac is better than none, no matter how bad the paint scheme may be.

o well i doesnt look the greatest but hey niced to see UP do something like this i wonder if BNSF would do something like that just imagine a SD70ace in Warbonnet make me feel all warm inside - good job on the photo non the less

If BNSF did commemorative schemes, they oughta do them for GN, CB&Q, NP, SP&S, and most importantly, the FRISCO.
