BNSF 4565 sunning herself below morning... - wait, just hold the phone - something is seriously wrong here - that A/C unit? Its ORANGE! On a DASH 9? Someone pull that livery paint scheme chart, something is drastically wrong. We see War Bonnet red, stolen gray - possibly a blue here and there - but orange? On a pumpkin BNSF? Sorry, I need to take a powder.
