Josh's Engine Roster

[Trucklover]

Athearn CSX SD60. She wears number 8706. Needs the following:

• Handrails Installed and Painted **COMPLETED ON MARCH 10, 2009**
  
• Needs to be Weathered
  
• Install a TCS T4XP (4 functions) or TCS T6XP (6 functions) or NCE D13SRJ (6 functions) (havnt decided yet) DCC Decoder

According to the CSX Roster, this loco should be a YN3 paint scheme. #8706 is known as the "Stealth" Scheme. CSX did a ton of different paint schemes back in the mid to late 80's. This was one of them. They didnt last long tho, and most had been repainted by the early 90's. So in a way, you could call this a "fantasy" paint scheme for the CSX.

Stealth units were all CSX gray from the walkway up and CSX blue from the walkway down. Some had the front and rear painted yellow with CSX Gray from the walkway up and CSX Blue from the walkway down, and some had the front, rear, walkway, and railings painted yellow while everything else was the same. Mine is like the second one described, with the front and rear painted yellow with CSX logos.


~~UPDATE MARCH 10, 2009~~

I also painted the handrails on this unit as well, some quick pics of this unit in the lead of a chip train
