Deseret Power Railway's new paint scheme



Wasn't this the original paint scheme that the locomotives were painted when they were delivered new to Mexico for the aborted NdeM electrification there?
Philip, no. This is an update to the original Deseret Western scheme, primarily changing the font and removing the Western Fuels logo, along with a fresh coat of paint all over:

The NdeM units had similar striping, though not quite the same, and were painted gray instead of a creamy beige:

A good comparison of color and stripe differences:
