That Green & Yellow
Title:  That Green & Yellow
Description:  #411 is the old being built in 1949 yet has the freshest coat of paint of the three. #1689 was built in 1954 and was repainted in its as-delivered scheme in 2003 which is now a little faded. #6847 still wares the paint it was retired in except for the cab which received a fresh coat of green and CNW logo to patch out the Union Pacific number.
