I have 2 undec ATLAS Dash 8 40-Bs that I want to paint in the YN3 paint scheme.

Can anybody supply road numbers,that is if there are more than one in this scheme.I've only been able to locate pics of just one unit so far.

I use the following website as a reference.  I think he's pretty up to date with tracking the new and old paint schemes/road numbers.

http://www.trainweb.org/csxphotos/

I've been using the site for patching and renumbering my Conrail units lately.  :P

Brian,that's the site that I use too,and for the same purpose at the moment that you do.I've just about decided (for lack of photographic proof) that there is indeed only one YN3 dash 8.

Since I am a freelancer  I will probly just bend my own prototype rules and pic one of the ex-Conrail patches and paint it YN3 anyway.

Thanks for the input guys.

I find it interesting that the ex-NS unit has been brought up because that is what I have decided to do.One undec becomes 5945 in YN3 and the other will be an ex NS unit.
