TriMet WES Commuter Rail Fleet Discussions

Here, you can discuss fleet details, updates, and news related to the WES Commuter rail line. I'll start by saying that Colorado Railcar cab car 2001 has been repainted into TriMet's phase 4 paint scheme. This article screenshot details why this repaint is happening.

Would have been cool if they continued the orange stripe down over the stainless steel. Probably doable if they used a decal rather than paint.

I actually based this on the Amtrak phase VII repainted Viewliner cars where the paint scheme only covers the non corrugated part of the cars.
