ACY Question
Nelson Moyer
I have an Athearn ACY boxcar painted in the yellow scheme with a build date of 5-47 and a reweigh date of BK 5-68. When did ACY start using the yellow paint scheme?

I'm fairly sure it started after 1960, probably in 1962. Here is a repaint from the 1951 order but I don't know if it preceded the yellow repaints or not. Tim O'Connor On 8/1/2022 8:01 PM, Nelson Moyer wrote:

I believe the yellow cars first appeared when the AC&Y leased former New Haven PS-1 40' boxcars in 1962. The cars were yellow with red lettering. Bob Weston
