That turned out handsomely; a nice blending of the grey and orange livery with the maroon and orange livery.

Good Looking Paint Scheme

I'd say this paint scheme is more deserving for a locomotive on the Hiawatha than copying UP's armor-yellow! The Friends of the 261 did one heck of a job! I assume the 32A will be accompanying 261 on future excursions?

Thank you for posting a great shot. Very beautiful restoration, and paint scheme.
Best regards.

Is this unit operational?

I love your photo. Beautiful E9 paint job job, and perfect lighting. Milwaukee Road did have a great paint scheme before they adopted the UP yellow.
Thanks for posting, and best regards.

Not sure if previous commenters will see this, but to answer a couple questions:
Yes, the locomotive is operational and does tag along with steamer 261 when it runs.
