Atlas produced some n-scale diesels in the DT&I orange scheme recently--I know the DT&I didn't run in western Michigan but at least it is close!! Also, if you operate your line as a shortline, many shortlines buy engines from railroads or brokers and never repaint, other than add reporting marks (the railroads initials, for example TSBY--Tuscola and Saginaw Bay--they do repaint their engines). I have seen many a UP engine in shortline service with the UP painted over in yellow and reporting marks stenciled on the cab.
