In the link above you will find the Rocky photos half way down the page;
Just to clarify what I was referring to with the Rocky wave paint scheme is all the cars are designed so that white wave starts at the top front of each car and runs to the bottom rear, the Rocky logo on the rear part of the car. Then the wave starts are the very top of the rear of each car then flows into the next car so the white blue transition matches between cars.
In this consist the power car is turned the wrong way so the paint scheme does not match as it was intended to in the paint scheme design.

My only observation on the Dome car was that there was only 1 on this train when in the past they used to run with 2 domes on this route and at the time I rode it one dome was in the old paint scheme so could not get a complete photo of the train with the new wave paint scheme.

Take a look and you will see that the Baggage actually a power car is
turned around backwards, so it messes up the wave!!

Not sure what you mean by your statement... it is in the normal position
for the car and irregardless of how it is turned its effect on the
Ultradome passengers' view should be negligible.  Not trying to be mean...
I'm just sayin'...
