I like trains.
CPKC is one of the dumbest names of all time. Just let KCS be a CP subsidiary like D&H and Soo. I voted against the name change because it's just so dumb sounding.

It's part of the reason why it's so hard to believe that Santa Fe and BN are gone despite it having been 30 years ago. BNSF is nothing. It's a random jumble of letters that means nothing to the average person. It has no image of its own either. It means nothing, it stands for nothing.

I'm not going to pick a specific paint scheme, but just going to go with BNSF as an entire brand. The name is stupid, all of the liveries are just half-assed GN rehashes. It's a railroad with absolutely no sense of identity.

CRANDIC's red and yellow livery is too iconic to even consider replacing.

Good taste and American patriotism, mutually exclusive since 2001!

I also have to disagree with the inclusion of Soo Line Candy Apple Red.

It's infuriating that Facebook hasn't gone the way of MySpace yet.

I wonder what Anna Steiff would have to say if she saw this...
