4 Door DT&I Magenta.....Pink soon-to-be
8 Door PC
8 Door MP Eagle.

That gives us 2 of the 3 "Easter Egg" DT&I schemes. Man I used to see these schemes thru Cincinnati and Newport ALL the time.

I always dread these announcements... for good reason.

Those PC boxes are hot!

I remember seeing those festive DT&I cars as a kid while riding the GO Train past the Ford plant in Oakville, Ontario. Been waiting for Bluford to do those for a long time. Sweet!

Anyone know if the PC car could be found in that scheme in the late 1980's?

There was a 4-door in that PC scheme sitting at Rose Yard in Altoona up until about 2006, when it finally got scrapped. I know Conrail was operating paint-outs in that scheme, but I cannot confirm that there were untouched PC ones still running around in that timeframe. There probably were, but you never know...
