You know Sibs. Everything bothers him. No concern is too meaningless to gripe about.

The cost to paint a locomotive is in the range of $10,000-$40,000 and 300-400 man-hours.
Besides the money, that's a lot of time to keep a locomotive off the rails doing it's job.
They must work on the FT work plan

I think BNut needs to go start the third All Star Game move thread.

Try a new creative angle like how you think they should have moved it to Bahstan instead.

Paint it while it’s on the rails. I’m sure they could get a bunch of rail fanners to do it for free.
