I heard somewhere that a new color scheme was proposed for the 300 class. I thought it was orange, like the 9000 class gons. Supposedly it was nixed because of the bankruptcy, and an image change was not allowed. That seems odd, as Rock Island changed its colors while in bankruptcy. Maybe it was because the trustees didn't want to spend the money to paint existing units to match.
Is there any truth to this, or was I fed misinformation?
