Im a sucker for train shots. I like how the yellow was handled and processed, it so often can be annoying on UP locos, maybe not as bad as that awful BNSF orange though!

Ned, I looked at this last night and came to the same thought this morning. I found from the first glance that I spent all my time looking at all the objects in the window. For me if you darkened the whole window I would really like the whole image.
Also Ned, yes I am still at the drags and the Beaches Cruise In on Wed. Three more weeks I think. Opens at 4:00 PM. :jump: :jump:

Andy, whats wrong with the BNSF orange? I'd take it over the UP's baby diaper yellow any day. :biggrin: BNSF's new logo, however, I'd agree does look a lot worse than the original.

I sort of like it. My only problem is that what it is is a bit too obvious. If I had to look at it and figure it out, it would be "oh, it's a train. Cool"!

That's true.. it is pretty straightforward I guess.. I like my box car art better...
