Passenger Trains > Fresh PaintDate: 10/18/20 04:58 Fresh Paint Author: Peak45068 Just a heads up you photographers out there. Today’s Train 20’s power consists of #18 + #174.
Nothing new there, but the #18 is Ex Works from The Grove. It is spotless only working the City of New Orleans out of Chicago before today’s working. Will it be the last Amtrak P42 to get a repaint? All the stores ex MI units are now parked in the station now.

Let’s hope a few more get the TLC they deserve after the recent few of 18/89/54. The #182 for example. Posted from iPhone Date: 10/19/20 05:12 Re: Fresh Paint Author: mbrotzman 2904 Wrote:
