Jerry:
As additional information, #9314 was damaged in a roundhouse fire and was
subsequently repainted into the late black/grey/white scheme. This was
Burlington's late switcher scheme, where the sill stripe, road numbers and
end stripes were white, but still has the word "Burlington" across the hood.
Al Holck's Volume 2 Burlington Route Color Pictorial has pictures on page
20.
Has anyone ever documented when this scheme was started? Did this paint
scheme variation start when road units started receiving wide side sill
stripes?

These were delivered the black and grey scheme, but with the word
"Burlington" on each side instead of the traditional slogans. The side
sills had red over yellow stripes and the grey nose stripes were edged with
red. They retained this paint scheme through to 1970.
I've found photos in Mike Spoor's CB&Q In Color Volume 3 pages 92 and 96,
and B&W photos in Burlington In Transition page 163 and The Wymore Story
page 47 (as a BN unit).
