Had a long phone chat with the folks at MTH on some of the issues raised here. 
F unit paint schemes: questioned them on the UP and ATSF paint schemes. Said 
they did do research on them and those schemes did exist

-------------------------------------------

Thanks for the reply Jeff. Sadly in there ignorance or arrogance they are 
wrong. I've been modeling the UP for 40+ years and I spoke with other UP 
modelers with even more years invested than me and no one has seen a UP scheme 
that resembles the catalog. I'm not saying a lone loco didn't sneak out of a 
paint shop somewhere temporarily, but none were shipped from EMD or operated 
(for long) with this scheme. 

I just wanted to refute their statement and set the record straight for all UP 
modelers. Please no further comments on this topic.
