"YN" stands for Yellow Nose.

Here is a photographic guide to all CSX paint schemes:

CSX paint scheme id codes

Posted by Anonymous on Monday, November 1, 2004 10:44 PM

Somewhere I learned that CSX uses certain desginations to identify their various paint schemes, such as "YN2" or "YN3". Certain model catalogs with CSX locos include the 'YN' code in the description, but I don't know exactly which one they mean. Is there a web site somewhere that explains these CSX paint scheme codes?
