CSX color scheme..

Unread post by David Collins »

I'm working on two engines of mine (two unmarked spectrum Dash 9's). One is going to become an AC44CW and the other one is going to stay as a dash 9.

I'm not sure maybe if DaveO or anyone else knows the answer, but what is the name of the blue CSX uses on their YN2 and YN3 locomotives, are they the same shade for both YN2 and YN3 or are they different? as well as the name is for the gray that CSX used on their YN2's.

Most model paint manufactures just call it CSX YN2 Yellow, CSX YN2 Blue, CSX YN2 Gray, same for YN3. YN2 and YN3 Blue are different shades of blue.
