    OK Guys, I've been lucky enough to get a pair of the new Atlas dash 8-40BW's, and have been going round "tweaking" the details this evening.

    Now I've found photo's that show that the nose front grabs had red ends and yellow inners, so the nose of the unit is no problem.

    I can't find a pic of the back of one of these units, Atlas have done all the grabs in yellow, but should these be silver & yellow? And what about the ones behind the conductors side of the cab as well (back of the air conditioner), I presume the same?

    Any help gratefully received!

    There are good pictures in "THE SANTA FE DIESEL' Vol. two by Dr. Cinthia Priest.
    The grabs with silve back ground are yellow with silver ends, grabs this red back ground are yellow with red ends.

    Santa fe All the Way!!! :D
