    Attention all you MoPac fans out there, did you see this?

    I just saw this for the first time yesterday. What a cool paint job to celebrate the Missouri Pacific!

    Ok, so who's gonna be the first to paint one of these up?

    :D

    It's about time UP celebrated it's heritage. It's been suggested to UP at least back at the time of the BNSF merger when BNSF decided to use the GN pumpkin and ATSF Warbonnet colors. It's good to see a Mopac unit back on the rails, at least in spirit. Thanks for sharing.

    I agree Tim, it's good to see the Eagle fly again if only for a brief period.
