Awesome picture!  But, I'm not familiar with that "plain" FEC paint scheme.  Is that new?  Also, if the unpatched CR hoppers aren't bad enough, that Southern hopper is really an anachronism.

I think it is. I think it's the "GP version" for units not getting the current red and yellow throwback.
I wish they'd do the lettering in yellow like the oldschool units though, and with those crazy yellow scare stripes.

Dammit, why is the FEC so sexy?
