By now, you are likely familiar with Amtrak's Phase 7 paint scheme. This is the scheme that was introduced in 2022 and is the new "go forward" scheme for Amtrak, replacing the Phase 5 scheme that has been the primary scheme since 2000. Superliners never really received a Phase 5 scheme per se. They received the new Amtrak logo, but kept the Phase 4b paint scheme with two thin red lines and a thicker blue line. However, Amtrak has started painting a few Superliners in what will be considered a Phase 7 scheme for the passenger cars. The scheme is very similar to the Phase 4b scheme. The thick blue line has been made ever thicker, and the thin red lines in the middle of the car have been removed. There is a section of the line that is the new darker blue, and a few white separation stripes. The Amtrak name and logo is now directly above the door.
