Two excellent pictures, Ralph. In that "before" picture the paint looks pretty darn good - much better than almost anything running around that is older than 5 years or so; even newer faded BNSF orange dash 9s. About the only differences I can see in the two pix is 1) the SD45 label is missing on the repaint, 2) the repaint is more glossy, and 3) the before pix shows some weathering on the cab roof. I remember when the hustle muscle, then BN 6430, was a regular on the mainline.
