Do you have a picture? I trust you, but it's always nice to see them :)

That is indeed a new one. I'll post the YN2 update over there shortly.

Don't see it listed (could be overlooking it), but CSX 9030 in YN3B was spotted in GR today, having come in 3rd out on K901 along with CSX 2 and an ES40DC. That's the first boxcar Dash 9 I've seen. I have pics, will post them later...

9030 was reported some time ago. If you're not sure, just search that number in this site, and look for it mentioned in the YN2 thread. :)

Saw that 7562 on Saturday night on Q501-03 in its sparkling YN3b paint. The C40-8s look fantastic in that scheme...
