Is it me or does this paint look like it has some metal flake in it. I don't remember the original GP40P paint to look that way, it sure does not look like B&O blue to me. It looks great, but the shade looks a bit light. Opinions???

Simply incredible. "Heritage" units that are actually of the vintage they represent are always special. And I can never resist a locomotive with uniquely colored trucks.

Very cool. I agree that the blue looks off, and it looks like they ballparked the numeral font on the cab sides. Still a very nice reminder of its heritage.

The blue appears to vary, unless it is dirt and different film. See:

I agree that the numbers are heavier on the original. I think they did well.
