Regarding Freight Liveries I suppose I live in the past,
Private owner wagons in all colours (mostly a bit subdued though). Trains made up from an assortment of different wagons except coal trains, red oxides, greys, blacks, flaking paint on wooden bodies and of course rust. Locos a dirty black with rusty highlighting or streaks of lime from water treatment for steam, dirty blues and greens for diesels. None of theses fancy colour schemes of the present day nor a caterpillar of wagons all looking the same none of which seem to have any character worth remarking on, only containers now have any individuality.
Personally I am quite happy living with my memories.
