I got the Athearn Conrail GP40-2 in the mail. I didn't realize it came with a signal box so when I removed it there was glue residue left on the paint.![[Image: image.jpg1_zpsn6y51fy8.jpg]](http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x163/damnscottkid/image.jpg1_zpsn6y51fy8.jpg)
so instead of attempting to remove the glue and redecal it to a Conrail Quality scheme I went through CSX's 4400 series GP40's and found one that is the same scheme and still has a signal box and fits my era of interest (2006), problem solved.
