Metra is paying homage to its roots by painting a heritage fleet of locomotives into the various paint schemes of the railroads that operated commuter service trains when the RTA was formed in 1974. The Chicago Burlington & Quincy or Burlington Route was part of a merger with the Great Northern, Northern Pacific, and Spokane Portland & Seattle to form the Burlington Northern in 1970. In 1996 The Burlington Northern and Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe merged to form BNSF Railway which still operates the commuter service under contract with Metra. META 211 is painted in the same paint scheme the CB&Q used for its passenger trains during its existence.
