OK Now you really have my attention !!! Comparing the first pictures you posted, with these :o :o :o That's a great way to start.
1965 - 76-ish....a lot of the LIRR locos would have had this paint scheme, the '64 "World's Fair" scheme.
( There should be a "Dashing Dan" logo just to the left of the cab on the short hood. All the photos I could find of the "proto" were at an angle that kept the logo hidden by the cab. ) I discovered the error only recently. One of these days, I'll have to add that logo.
Atlas did a pair of RS-1's in that scheme, in HO scale.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
