When Class 1 railroads were significantly smaller 40-50 years ago, it was not too hard for all the units on the roster to carry the same paint scheme. Today, when there are 7,000-8,000 units on the roster, it takes years (or even decades) to get everything repainted. UP changed their official paint scheme last year, removing the American flag from the long hood. But it will likely be many years before the "flag" units are gone. Here, two flag units and an ES44AC in the newest scheme, lead a loaded oil train east out of Leyden.
