New paint for the passenger car fleet

Unread post by sd70accsxt700 »

Looking for photos and info for my modeling the CSX passenger cars, and came across this photo of one in the new dark future. Talk about wanting to puke. First the old, then the new.

Those are ugly! A little…no a lot more color wouldn’t hurt ya know. CSX needs to learn how to create a "colorful" paint scheme. :lol:

The solid grey roof is pretty bad....maybe a black roof, but one would assume they picked a lighter color to reflect the heat of the sun better?
