Today was the start of a new era for the 'Philippine National Railways' with the surprise unveiling of the first locomotive in the new orange colour scheme.
There has been some talk of a new scheme during both of my two most recent visits, with many theories as to what that would be. However, no theory came close to the striking orange that 917 rolled out in today.
I believe the new locomotive from Indonesia, perhaps the DMU and loco hauled stock a well, will be arriving in this livery It also has me wondering if the paint stripped ROTEM DMU set will be making an appearance in the new livery as well.
We offer a BIG thank you to 'Philippine Railway Historical Society' reporter Mark Chua for bringing us the news, as we as the wonderful shots of her below.
