What is the best way to inform Amtrak that there is a serrious mistake on their Heritage and special paint schemes. Then the next question would be, "Will they fix it?"
The United States flag on the engineer side of the equipment is facing the wrong way. The star field is always forward. (Think of how a flag looks when carried in a parade). A rear-facing flag indicates retreat.
Every Heritage paint scheme, including the Veteran's #42, is wrong. The ACS-64's are correct.
While it may not seem like a big deal to some, I would guess that some Veterans that are knowledgeable about flag eddiquite would see it as insulting.
