BN Executive Paint Scheme - Trains Magazine
In the early 1990s Burlington Northern Introduced their Executive
paint scheme that first showed on rebuilt F-9 BN1 and BN2 engines, and later adapted as the standard paint job for their brand new SD70MACs. If the proposed merger with Santa Fe in the Mid-1990s failed to see the light of day and remained its own railroad, would BN have
incorporated the Executive paint into other wide cab models they might
have acquired, such as GE C44-9Ws and non-AC EMDs such as SD70Ms or SD75s, or reverted to regular cascade green? I'm asking because I heard that BN specifically choose the Executive paint job to
distingui***heir AC-traction SD70MAC's from the rest of their
conventional DC fleet.
