I can never understand why theme parks decide to decorate engines that more closely resemble an Indian music video than anything that actually ran in their own country, but then they spout off the references to looking "old timey". If I never saw a 5 color paint job on a steam engine in the US, or an "engineer" wearing hickory stripes and a bandana again, I'd live a little easier.
