In the 2025 season, RMRX 8600 was entirely blue in its lease colors. This season, however, it has been painted in full Rocky Mountaineer (Canyon Spirit) colors. Looks very good on the point of the train. With the GP40-3s still out of service due to the accident in Rifle last May, UP 4073 is filling in on the train as well.
