May wanna check your NS roster numbers, mate. 5801 is an ex-GP50 which is now a GP38-3 (Rebuild). Look at how big the radiators are, and the fact that it doesn't have the Paper Air Filter box.
This page here is the GP38 series, even though they aren't dash 2s.

EDIT: and here's the Dash 2s.

Well you better make up my mind! I already changed the number boards to have black numbers on white with and without the lights on. Took a little figuring out. Do we want the white mono brow? Let's get it together people. If we keep counting too many rivets, it won't get released at all. It's black and has a horsy on it. That's enough for me. *!lol!*

Lights off.

Try this number..

Lights on.

No rivet counting here man, just trying to help something good be better! I figured it had static numbers, so it would be much harder to change on my end than it is on yours.

A. I think you guys are nuts. !*roll-laugh*!
B. You may chase away many a good painter with this silly nit picking. !*not-ok*!
C. You should just fix these things yourself if they bug you that much. If you are incapable of that maybe you should just appreciate what you are getting for free. *!greengrin!*

There is another GP38 and its colours are Orange and White.

I will probably make a few more numbers of this. Thinking of one with a little used look and maybe make them also without crews. We'll see. It's Mikes (MDurdan) AC unit. Might turn it over to him to upload or whatever. Buzz can also. *!!wink!!*
