I'm not totally sure I'm right but I think they are only going to repaint the former Conrail units that will not be retired in a few years. So expect most of the old GE's and GM's to stay in CR paint for now. But I have seen some GP-40's,GP-38's, and GP-15-1's repainted. Conrail still does exist in the shared assets areas. THey have some SD-45's and some older geeps. Read Railpace Magizine. They are very good on keeping up with the repaints and retired engines. That will help you out.

is ns and csx going to rapaint all the old conrail engines, or does conrail still have a few lines. I see that there is some pretty new ns paint on some older engines, I think those were old conrails.
