    If you are like me, you've probably wondered why we don't have CSX's Yn3 paint job. We have Yn2...and Yn3b...but not Yn3, which is literally the most common paint job on the CSX network at the moment.

    Plus, it's a darn simple job, just remove the ASCII boxcar from Yn3b, and make the CSX text larger. Done. Literally nothing to change other than the logo. So why didn't DTG do it?


    But with the new methods of modding, there was finally an opportunity to make something useful out of this. Thus, thanks to DTG making a Yn3 GP38-2, I created Yn3 versions of every CSX locomotive so far. (replacing the Yn3b versions)

    And yes, I did make a Yn3 version of the CSX Heavy Haul GP38-2. It looks identical to the NEC version, so if you have NEC, it's pretty useless.

    All 4 locomotives should end up on Railworks America soon enough, with the ability to mix and match only the locomotives you want to see in Yn3.
