When someone shows you their true

colors, don't try to repaint them!

Wonder whose living room this will be?

A washed out and abysmal looking 8153 leads a nicer looking 8238 into Exeter with empty limestone train 2223 from Berrima to Medway Quarry.

After receiving its repaint RBMN GP38-2 2013 powers the PNPV through Mill Creek Junction at Port Carbon after shifting Yuengling Brewery.

I decided to repaint Kocoum’s face since his eyebrow was rubbed off and I wasn’t a huge fan of his default eyes since they looked a bit too wall eyed.

I first painted his face to match his body then I decided to try painting him to look like a collector Ken doll with smaller eyes and a bit of a smoulder.

NS 143 is at Jenkinsburg, Georgia with UP C45CCTE 5269 in fairly fresh UP paint. April 2022

Thanks to a note from K-MAD saying a repaint was leading an empty grain train out of Superior I was able to get a shot of it at Boylston. Channeling my inner Enenbach, I incorporated some flora into this view as the 107-car train rolled south across County C.

Always loved the look of this fig and it always reminded me of crossbones so I decided to repaint him to look like CW Crossbones. Might redo the eyes but overall I like how it turned out

350110 ready to roll off of Bletchley TMD for Northampton Kings Heath

Now supporting the new LNWrailway colours

Gone with the project110 advertising on the side

My driver friend Graham who brought the unit off of the TMD and took it to King's Heath then brought 350108 (with what used to have black trespassing advertising) to Bletchley TMD to have the black stripped and to go into the new colours too

With the last bit of sun remaining in Brockville, coming around the curve is #CN321 with a BCOL C44-9WL #BCOL4641 hauling about 80+ cars towards Toronto’s Mac Yard.

I’ve had the Shang Li on the right for years with his hair all messed up and choppy but I’ve been too afraid to customize him because he was one of my only Asian males ever.

But since finding a near mint Shang Li doll, I decided to trim up my first Shang’s hair a bit more and wiped him. I tried to repaint him to look a bit less cartoony and hoped that he’ll integrate with my collection better lol.

I still cant believe its been like 10 years since I’ve started collecting and Shang is still one of the only playline Asian male dolls ever…

Im getting better haha :D

Looking back to this day in 2011, we'll see a freshly repainted BC Rail C44-9WL. Catch of the day! A repainted BC Rail C44-9WL was seen coming back from Humboldt Yard, as the WC headed to the Highline to get their BN cars. The paint on this unit looked so nice and fresh, yet for some reason, they forgot to repaint the trucks. It doesn't seem that this was that long ago!

Jan 8th, 2011, CP University, Mpls, MN.

Recently I have been able to get some shots of GEs wearing the new CPKC paint scheme. Back on June 30th, 2025 I was able to CP 8108 leading the 446 train through Grasston on BNSF's Hinckley Sub. This train runs twice a week to serve Stinson yard in Superior, WI.

June is a Fashionista repaint. To see before and after pics and other photos, check out www.chynadollcreations.blogspot.com

Repaints of company equipment into a retro scheme is a welcome change, but it's usually a sign that their operational days are numbered. It varies by railway, anywhere from a few months to a few years, but it's a general rule the "tetsudo" here go by.

On October 4, 2026, Seibu Railway pressed into service one repainted 10000 Series New Red Arrow limited express into its retro Red Arrow Classic scheme, first applied to the railway's 5000 Series in 1969. The company will operate the 10000 Series on the Shinjuku Line in this scheme until the trainset retires in Spring 2027 (likely in March). While the end is in sight and is a bit of a downer more classic rolling stock is on the way out, this is one sharp as hell scheme to go out on!
