    I have to disagree with the phase 6 and 7, I personally think 7 looks better with the dark blue and the swoosh. But 6 still looks nice.

    I like silver/metal on trains. My favorite is the Phase 3. I think Phase 4 is nice as well, especially on the Amfleets. Phase 6 is nice, not bad, and I do not like Phase 7. The swooping lines, the very dark blue, and lack of metal/silver finish let it down for me, I would like more silver. I feel that American trains have become known for their metal color, especially with ribbed metal, which I quite like. I really like the TSWII wrap, it would have been nice if a livery like that was permanent for Amtrak locomotives. It would have been nice it the new Amtrak livery is silver with red, white, and blue stripes, reminiscent of Phase 3 but maybe with more blue for just the locomotives.

  • @ArchJ17
    @ArchJ17 Год назад +1

    As just a engine I like phase 6 but seeing the renders of what a complete phase 7 train will look like it’s a winner. The swoosh looks kinda weird alone but with the whole train it works.

  • @adventuresofamtrakcascades301
    @adventuresofamtrakcascades301 Год назад +4

    Honestly I'm in a one way tie between Phase 6 and Phase 7 as my favorite because I love that shiny look on Phase 7 because I actually like that swoop of white because it Honestly looks streamlined and Phase 6 looks great especially the back side

  • @D2Kprime
    @D2Kprime Год назад

    Phase III with the F40PH is definitely prime Amtrak. I'm taking a Typography class and I found out that the typeface used for the old Amtrak logo was 'Helvetica' which is used *EVERYWHERE* but you probably don't realize it.
    I always wondered why the word "Amtrak" in that typeface looked almost as iconic as the Chevron/Arrow logo, but after studying it's history I know why now. Smart choice.

    @DC4260Productions Год назад +4

    ACS-64 No. 662 is one of my favourite Amtrak engines, even if only for her connection to Train Sim World. It's a shame that her livery wasn't updated to promote TSW3, but now that I think about it, it's odd that an Amtrak locomotive carried this advert when the ACS-64 and Amfleet coaches are the only Amtrak rolling stock in the game.

    I think phase 3 is the best paint scheme particularly on Amtrak genesis locomotive 145 and 822. On an F40, I don't think it looks as good, but the sleek strips fit well with the P42DC's streamlined design.

  • @jrmerrick9436
    @jrmerrick9436 Год назад

    Thanks for the comparison. Early Amtrak paint colors were dreadful. Washed out blue and orangey-red and the truly mindless, static arrow which suggests slow speed and generic service not to mention the accompanying uniforms. Newer schemes are all an improvement and getting better

    I sort of disagree with gen 1 Acelas- they're iconic and actually pretty good looking when they were new, but MAN have they started looking dated, particularly in the last 5 years. Idk what it is that I didn't notice before the new Avelia powercar's design was shown, but when side by side with the gen 1 Acelas, the gen 1's look WAY older, and now that they've aged a little bit there's something that's so 2000's about them that isn't retro yet, and they just look tacky instead. Give it another 20 years and we'll be cheering when they pull out of the station on some limited-run heritage line tho

    Who cares about service, comfort, design, and so on, all world’s bottlenecks should be removed, until we can do everything instantly, so in this case, as fast as possible travel time is the only thing that matters for trains.
