Just something I heard - like calling Amtrak's red nose
livery the "Bloody Nose" scheme, a la SP.

As for the scheme on #145, I think they should take the
time to FIX it. The scheme it's borrowed from had a gray
stripe above the red, white and blue. Not only would it
be more accurate but it would (FINALLY) allow Amtrak to
start following the body lines of the engines it paints!

I hijacked a photo from Kevin Andrusia on TO's for reference
purposes:

What do you think?
