Ed... seein' red

I've never seen a shot of this CR unit before. Never saw it in Buffalo either. What was the deal with it? Big blue gets a little "red" once in a while?

Nice photoshop job, but a zoom in gives it away. There's still quite a bit of blue on the handrails, and they screwed up the "fill" in the area around the rear fans. There's red on the cab of the uboat behind it.

Do us CR guys a favor and post a comment to that effect. I know it's April Fools day and all, but that'll create LOTS of questions down the road...

Kinda figured it was odd. If it were real, you'd imagine it would be a pretty well known unit.

So that's what CR+CP would have looked like...

My comment (which will never make it past their screeners):

It's amazing how this site will reject some fairly nice photo submissions, and then turn around and accept an obvious Photoshop job. Maybe if people begin Photoshopping their pictures so the skies are always nice and blue, nothing will ever be rejected again...

hehe, cool.

But they should'a done it in PRR Tuscan, with dulux yellow lettering.  ;)

"Hmm... red engines are
so cute..."


Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

They'd have saved money repainting the CNJ locos that color! Possibly summa the LV ones, too!  ;D ;D
