Chao Hwa Chen's AEM7 status page has been updated again as of June 9.

933 and 937 are now in the Acela scheme. They have not yet been rebuilt into AEM7AC's are still DC. This leaves only 922, 931, 949, 950 and 951 in Phase III.

Technically, even the remaining Phase III AEM7's aren't in their original scheme. The Amtrak logo on the front was originally offset, but it was moved to the center to make way for the ditchlights several years ago.

when was this done? The photos show this around 1997 or 98.
