Nova -
I modified your paint scheme a bit - this is something like what I have in mind. Unfortunately, I'm at school now, so I don't have Photoshop on this computer, and I'm unable to properly drop the MTA logo into the image.
Anyway, let me know what you all think. I personally think that the MP36 is a pretty nice looking passenger locomotive... I know most of you like the switcher and/or frieght loco design, but I think we all realize that the MTA is going for a more "modern" look these days.

It looks a little like an FP40 that got too close to a malfunctioning reactor. Long Island locos, assuming they are not steam, should be grey and orange, with "Dashing Floyd" on the sides.

I agree Rich.

Guys: I personally would like to see a orange/grey version of the wave on a NJT PL42-which is much more attractive than the MP36. MACTRAXX
