They also should reconsider the paint job. The stripes look ridiculous and off center in the middle of the car, but actually aren't when seen directly on. How about just platinum mist with the Metra logo over the entrance doors?
7664 is now at 14th Street, presumably on a SWS set, first car behind two locomotives. Wish I could’ve gotten a photo on the way out of CUS.

8573 has now made it over to the MILW/NCS.

Additionally there seems to be more 6000 series cars on MILW and a few have also made it to BNSF/SWS.
