AMTK 174 wears the newest paint scheme Amtrak has to offer. The Phase 7 scheme, introduced in 2022, is the "go-forward" scheme for Amtrak for the foreseeable future after roughly 20 years of Phase 5 as king. AMTK 161, on the other hand, has the original Amtrak scheme. The Phase 1 scheme was introduced in 1972 and is often referred to as either the "bloody nose" scheme, or the "pointless arrow" scheme.
