    The yellow looks well faded and she's pretty grimy. A good candidate for repainting.

    Yes, I am sure she'll get repainted in time... I have seen some CSX C40-8's in the YN3 scheme already. I just figured this was a rarity, as the only other stealth C40-8 I have seen in the past year or so was 7509 (?)

    Thanks, Tim... I think the last "stealth" unit I caught was # 7509.

    Hi Harold,

    Nice to see you back! Nice catch on the "stealth". I saw 7588 in Middlesboro in
    Sept. '09 and 7509 in Knoxville John Sevier yard of all places.

    Are you in Rocky Mount often? I live in Red Oak (10 minutes away).

    Guzman,
    I try and get out there once a month or more... it depends on what is going on at work. I know where Red Oak is, so maybe you should PM me so we can see if we can plan a meet.

    CSX 7587 rolled past my office building (overlooks a main line), east bound, just this morning. Still in the Stealth paint. It was raining, but she didn't look to bad.

    At the rate that CSX is repainting units, especially C40's, it probably won't last long :(
