John,

This is correct, but don't forget the rebuilt 7100 series heavyweight 
coaches, a few of the 4500 series chair cars, and some 6100 series coaches - 
all painted in the "Suburban Service" green, tan, and silver with yellow 
lettering.

You can find out more about Burlington's suburban service in Ed DeRouin's 
very nice two part article - "Land of the Burlingtons" in Passenger Train 
Journal, December 1988 and January 1989. You can find these issues with 
railroad magazine resellers.
