If I remember correctly, Guilford painted a locomotive and a boxcar in pan am colors in 1999 or 2000. Am I right?

If they did at the time it certainly isn't around anymore. I haven't seen any engines painted in the new Pan Am for myself nor are there any pictures of it that I have seen. They may have had a box car or two but not an engine. Nobody on here as ever mentioned it. I would give it another year or two before we start to see some locomotives with the new Pan Am colors. I know the Pan Am's business cars have the new Pan Am loco on them but are still in the gray and orange paint scheme.

Guilford did at least one, and maybe more, boxcars in white with blue lettering and the Pan Am logo back about 4 to 5 years ago. I believe there was a picture on the NERAIL Photo Archives.

There were quite a few Pan Am boxcars in Waterville yard last week.

They have never painted a Pan Am locomotive.

They did paint at least one, possibly more, Pan Am boxcars in the late '90s shortly after they acquired the Pan Am name.
