I'm not entirely sure of how to do it, but the formatting of the maps could use some work now that I put that line under "Passenger Operations". When I get the chance, I'll put up something about the routing of each train, like "Buffalo-New York City" or the like.--Foxhound 05:34, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Livery data

Since the LV used a variety of liveries on its diesel locomotives, it might be valuable to have a brief overview of the more widespread ones. Once I figure out what those were and what to say about it, I'll add something about it. The Cornell red, ex-PRR Tuscan red, gray-and-yellow, and white-and-black liveries are the ones I'm considering at the moment. Something ought to be said about the livery on the pre-war streamlined John Wilkes as well, but I know next to nothing about it. Comments and criticism welcomed. Foxhound 18:29, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
