Does anyone know if any of the cars in this series (#9800-9849, built 1963) were repainted in the green merger Burlington scheme?
Definitely. When Athearn came out with these in their Genesis line in 2005 they did both red and green cars. Back then I researched it and it appears for some reason the CB&Q PR department or management wanted some of these very unique looking cars painted green for the merger. I know I have both 9805 and 9824 in green, and I believe I found photos of both in green. It does seem odd since these cars were repainted when only about 5-6 years old. That's why I did some research back when I bought the green ones.
