Listers, One of my projects this summer was to try out the new EL colors. Working with DuPont/BASF in Fort Collins, Colorado, we were able to completely recreate the EL GMY as it would have appeared on EL equipment. Those folks have done an excellent job, and I look forward to seeing GMY on ELDCPS equipment in the near future. As UP is VERY short of engineers, they have been able to keep me busy just about every day. In other words, to get anything accomplished takes several weeks, even something simple. Attached find two photos of our new mailbox painted in GMY. My wife gives it a try on its first revenue run accepting mail from the USPS. I think this is a close as we are going to get, and they have done a good job. Comments? Regards, John Boehner, VP ELDCPS ps: The switch stand at the end of our driveway is of D&RGW origin. ------------------------------
