Those Lionel Legacy F7 units paint scheme is for C&NW's business train. Matt is correct about business train 's trucks wear silver.

Was hesitant to preorder with Lionel's history of color mis selections, and thankfully this set turned out to be one of them our local.shop ordered for stock. Think they still have them on the shelf. Would have sold a ton in correct colors.

Still a nice Loco for those not interested in CNW passenger service. Jeff, get a late model caboose and pretend they are hauling freight on test runs.
