I discovered some photos of the CIRY/DSRX 1208 in almost plain blue sitting in the fenced little yard area next to the 1206 in CBQ paint scheme. I assume the photo has been taken at the very end of the CIRY service area. The 1208 got a new blue paint covering all the ugly tagging but no new lettering has been applied. There is no horn visible on those photos (afraid of vandalism?).
I will uses it as is until I get condensed white Microscale letters and new red stripes (my old ones are to brittle to be used).
That allows two scenarios on my layout. With CIRY switchers up to 2010 and with BNSF GP50 after 2010.
