    (...) What are you talking about? The engine looks kind of like a GE 44 tonner and as for the construction equipment, it's fairly harmless. 4559 looks nothing like a real train. 4565 is OK. It's also a good set for parts. I have about 8 4559s and 4 (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.trains)

    (...) Now there's a less than experienced comment. You name a color scheme, no matter how ugly, and I can name a real railroad that used it. Especially restricted to white black red yellow blue... that's easy. That's a dare, by the way. (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.trains)

    (...) GE erecting shops prior to applying the real/final paint (other than white), their primer is pinkish, or was. But I admit, pink is not a very popular color, I had to stretch. Try one using the 5 primary lego colors... heck, I'll even let you (...) (25 years ago, 31-May-99, to lugnet.trains)

   Larry, I would have to say yellow and white. Unless they have a Miami ViceLiner, I don't think we have a match. They are UGLY together. Of course, I have seen some ugly schemes... Mike (...) on your (...) (25 years ago, 1-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)

    (...) Uffda, and right here in my own backyard! IMHO the merger between Burlingtion Northern (excellent color scheme) and the Santa Fe (another classic scheme) to form the BNSF produced an abhorrant conglom.
