	NO!

	SF-Muni did buy a couple  ({[pat]})  4000s but don't know what
colors they will be painted.   Think they are here!

	The purist in me says:   "Do  NOT  paint  ({[pat]})  cars in
PRCo colors!   The 4000s are markedly different from the 1700s
from which they are patterned."   Any of the  ({[pat]})  colors
from 1970 forward would be appropriate.   This includes the gray
as well as the banded colors.

	Yes - this car does look exceptional.   The PCCs and the
overhaul of these cars is exceptional.   Think it would bring
tears to the eyes of Meisner and St.Louis Car for the quality
work they did not only cosmetically but also electrically and
mechanically.   They operate quite smoothly!
