Yes I did that myself. I took an old Athearn Bluebox SD9, which I detailed, and custom painted. Getting the cream was a bit of an experiment, but the green is polyscale new brunswick green, a decal set was used from Microscale. I also have an Athearn Genesis GP15-1 in CFNR scheme on order.
I model my layout in the first half of the 90's, where the CFNR just started operating, and SP power was still about. I've taken some modelers licence though and placed the locoshop facilities on the layout. I'm not 100% certain it actually was existing at the time, but did by the end of the 90's.

PS: Here's the loco shop, as pictured in BING maps.
