I've got to assume someone had the Daylight scheme in mind for this. Next to the Surfliner scheme on 461, the Surfliner is insipid!

Two comments:

 

1. That is a truly ugly and ineffective paint scheme, the white text disappears into the orange, and the surfer/board draws attention away from the rails at his feet.

 

2. It boggles my mind that the Operation Lifesaver people think that their target audience reads the sides of locomotives. That would require that they actually look up from their smartphone screen...
