Two part question: Why is it called Chineese Red? Why did the Q change
from the Blackbird scheme to the Chineese Red scheme. Someone I met a
couple of years ago explained that the M&StL started painting its rolloing
stock red because the new railroad president was a Nebraska alumni and
wanted everything painted after his alma matter's colors.
