Pepsican head-on
A follow-on to this shot, posted earlier: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9505213/
Again, very pleased with the turnout on this shot. The stormy sky really sets off the locomotive's paint! Also, you can see clear under the engine to the other side of the tracks. Cool! :B One of Amtrak's specially designed Auto Train autoracks (train car specially designed to move automobiles) is visible behind the 516, to the left.

Nice shot! They're not so much Pepsi Cans anymore in my mind though. That paint scheme won an industrial design award! Such a shame it's gone now. Still, it's nice to see that not every Amtrak loco has that ugly blue wave paint. Several other P32s have been in Chicago for the last several years being used as switchers, though I suspect they'll end up back out on the road more often, since the P40 and P42's trucks have been cracking! P32 #518's A/C unit is actually still in the Pepsi-Can paint. 518 also has a Milwaukee Road Hiawatha logo under the cab windows, which was applied when it ran with MILW 261 on excursions.
Yeah lol. Here's video I shot of 518 leaving Chicago Union Station on the Hiawatha Service to Milwaukee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYnByz9aJbM
