stripe scheme.
1975 - Rebuilt at MK and emerged as D&H RS3u No. 1976. nose
was chopped at MK,
and returned to the D&H painted in the D&H Bicentennial
scheme.
1976 - April 1 - No. 1976 leads the first D&H train over
Conrail's Southern Tier main
between Binghamton & Buffalo, using the new D&H traffic rights
on the line.

Today, No. 506 remains the only 1976 Bicentennial
locomotive still
wearing its 1976
bicentennial paintscheme! Yes, the blue was given a fresh coat,
but the striping and the
red paint was never replaced, and the overall scheme (apart from
the lettering) remains
original to the D&H bicentennial scheme first applied in
1975!
No. 506 was one of eight D&H RS3's rebuilt into
chop-nosed
RS3u units by Morrison-Knudsen
in 1975-1976. Today 506 is the only survivor of the eight.
506 was also one of two D&H bicentennial units, the other
being GE U23B 1776.

There has been some confusion about the origins of 30 and 40..
but I straightened it out!
some rosters say 30 was B&M 1126 and 40 was B&M 1127.
this is incorrect.
Provencial Shortline didnt number them in consective order.
30 is actually B&M 1127
40 is actually B&M 1126
this
