Here's the options... sadly no action red with a multimark or tuscan and gray script (though the yellow nose stripes are taken from it).

I'll take Option 1 with Option 2 nose stripes. The others look too much like UP with the yellow and red reversed.

I would vote for option 3. I like 2 better, but I figure the roof will collect enough dirt, soot and exhaust that it will blacken considerably over time, and with option 3, it is more "intentional".

Nose stripes definitely better than no nose stripes.

That is a strange looking beaver.

I prefer the two-tone of 3 or 4.  Mind you, it will all look better when it is black with CN on the side.

I saw someone compare it to the AVR scheme from Unstoppable.

Option 3, but add a cupcake graphic somewhere (CPKC).

I'll take Option 1 with Option 2 nose stripes. ...

My thought too.

I'll probably get some flak for this, but any of those schemes look great compared to BNSF Pumpkins.

And I don't like any of them haha. I think a problem is that beaver logo.  It's so large you can't do much else on the sides. Option 5 would look better with double the yellow, but there isn't room. The beaver logo ought to reside on the nose. And I wonder if adding CP gray somewhere would improve things too.

Same here...   1 with the stripes from 2..

I'd give a close second to 5 with the stripes from 2

but if I have to choose from those specific options-- I'd go with 1 as it's unique compared to what everyone else is doing.

The beaver looks very out of place in these schemes..

I still say they need to put a sombrero on the beaver. Seriously though, I like option 1 the most.

[eja]

No doubt the winner will be the one that take the least time to apply and requires the least material and maintenance.

Time is money, after all.

[wazzou]

Needs more smoke.

Apparently I'm the only one who'll vote for #5.

[Steveruger45]

I like option 5 too.
