Amtrak and its paint schemes

Amtrak began operating in May 1971 with equipment inherited from predecessor railroads. The varied paint schemes on its trains became known as the Rainbow Era. Amtrak gradually repainted its equipment into system-wide phases, beginning with Phase I around 1972, to establish a unified passenger railroad brand. The phases are generally numbered in sequence, often with Roman numerals, and were painted on all equipment until the introduction of the Acela.

Since 2000, Amtrak has used different phases for some locomotives and cars: locomotives have received Phase V, while cars have received Phase IVb. Locomotives and cars painted in different styles could still be described as belonging to the same phase, and locomotive versions sometimes had unofficial nicknames.

Amtrak’s network

Amtrak operates more than 300 trains each day across 21,300 miles (34,000 km) of track, connecting more than 500 destinations in 46 states and three Canadian provinces. Some segments have civil operating speeds of 150 mph (240 km/h). In fiscal year 2014, Amtrak served 30.9 million passengers, reported $2.189 billion in revenue and employed more than 20,000 people. Nearly two-thirds of passengers came from the ten largest metropolitan areas, and 83% travelled on routes of 400 miles or less. Its headquarters is at Union Station in Washington, D.C.
