To my knowledge, there were only two versions of the GP15-1, and the C&NW "normally aspirated" version was one of them, so if your "body" doesn't have all the louvers behind the cab, it's probably the correct one for Conrail. I know that Athearn did a lot of research on the GP15, before going into production. Their GP15, if painted and lettered for Conrail is most likely very accurate, at least for the number, or number series they've produced.
I'm not 100% sure the C&NW had the only ones of that kind, but there were limited numbers of them.
Oh, I remember that the original issue of Smokey Valley kits were not the C&NW version.

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
