Any Remaining TSBY Painted Units?

Unread post by TrainStuff13 »

Until recently, I thought that GLC 393 was the last TSBY painted unit on GLC's roster until it was painted into the anniversary paint scheme last year. There are a couple units that I cannot find pictures of in GLC paint, and those units are 394 and 389. If they are still in TSBY paint, I'm assuming they're out of service. I know there's also a high hood GP35 in TBSY, but I believe that's used as a part source in Owosso. Anyone know about these two units?

389 and 394 are the two ex AA GP35s still in TSBY. 389 has pretty much become a parts source and it doesn't sound like it will run again. Last I heard 394 could be made to run again if traffic warrants an additional unit. 2648 and 2681 are the high hood Geeps, with the former in TSBY paint and the latter in black. Both have been sidelined for years.

Wonder if there was some kind of problem with 389 for them to use it as a part source. I would hope that 394 would be put back into service without being repainted right away.
