- I don't know the old number, but one of the E's that is missing from the
- list above has been renumbered to BN-3 and repainted in the "executive paint
- schema". It accompanied BN-1 and BN-2 on BN's executive retreat to Winter Park,
- Colorado 1/13-19. On the way up the Moffat line the E developed a problem and
- became a streamlined heater car. Once BN paints a couple more business cars,
- they ae going to have a very good looking train.
