Is this a patched CSX unit? This must mean UP and CSX are going to merge right[;)]
BTW, the above statement is pure sarcasm.
No, of course not!
That means that it’s already happened!
[(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D][(-D]
I’ll get the rumor mill cranked up…
Hot dog! Now all those troublesome bridges in Kentucky will be painted Armour Yellow![;)]
They just bought a CSX engine, that’s all…
Either that or it’s Photoshop. You see that same patch on the SP engines!
Or maybe the unit needed repairs when it was on UP rails, and the panel is all the UP had available.
Or like Bob says, photoshopped.
My thought was a hasty repair job.
[sarcasm]The merger has already happened and Metra is next! Why do you think UP doesn’t want people to photograph Metra trains at its stations? You’d spot early patches![/sarcasm]
“Be specific-ship Metra Pacific”[:-,]
Ooh, I like it! Imagine…an Armor Yellow commuter train…also pulling TOFC!
I guess those Metra talks were called off–the photo ban has been lifted.
That was a matter of time, anyway.
Carl, is this true, they called off the photo ban? If so that sure didn’t last long.
I hope this means I will soon see a black horse on the nose of my favorite BNSF engine?
(Go Tree!)
What makes you think it won’t be an orange “swoosh” on a black engine?[:)]
Hmm - hadn’t thought of that. Just figured they would keep that horrible orange all over the engine (just to annoy me) and a small colt on the front! Your suggestion has possibilities!
That was just to cover the movement of the train of shackle boxcars. Shhh. Or they will come get you next.
And yet, when someone calls them pumpkins, people get uptight-go figure.
It gives pumpkins a bad name.
Just stick big black mouse ears on 'em. Mookie knows what happens next.[8][8][8]
They go to CATX? [:D]
