Greetings..
I have a question which I hope someone can help me with, regarding 
some custom decorated CB&Q 40' gold RPI Award boxcars I'm 
currently working on.
I'm creating the artwork for these cars and have run into a 
road number problem. Apparently there were 8 individual cars painted 
in this lettering, three of which have been released on boxcars by 
Accurail and Athearn. These previously released numbers are: 17786, 
17302, and 61417.

I know of one other number which has not been released, 60682, but 
would like to print 2 additional unreleased road numbers.
Does anyone have any idea what the other 4 road numbers might be? 
I've had no luck whatsoever finding this information on the web and 
even the article in the Burlington Bulletin #7 doesn't have any info 
on the 'missing four'.

My alternatives are:
- Print only one road number.
- Choose two numbers from what is assumed to be the correct number 
series of the XM-32s that were being reshopped (AKA 'Best Guess')

I'm actually hoping to print these cars this coming week, so any 
information would be most welcome.
Thank you!
