I wonder if someone can tell me what paint scheme the new Atlas GP40 Rio Grande have?
The regular paint scheme?
Aspen Gold Yellow?
Kansas City?
Here are some pictures from the Atlas site.
Sorry for this, the answer was right in front off my eyes. It’s aspen gold, I can read that on the Atlas website.
not sure but it looks like a great engine.
Fade the paint a bit and weather it, and you have a Wheeling & Lake Erie engine 
The original GP40’s(3051-3093) were delivered in the ‘Aspen Gold’ scheme. This was Duco Orange(Dupont 254-6479). This is also known as ‘Grande Gold’ in some listings. Engines 3081-3093 were delivered with the large ‘Rio Grande’ lettering. So, your Atlas DRGW 3082 is correct(as expected from Atlas).
The ‘Kansas City’ orange was used by Mid America Car when repainting the 23 former Conrail GP40’s purchased by the Rio Grande in 1983, and repainted in 1984. The road number were 3131-3151. This color is a little darker than the previous ‘Aspen Gold’.
The ‘Anschutz’ orange was used on the SD50 and GP60 engines, and still even darker than the ‘KSC’ orange. When all 3 paint schemes are run together in a consist, it just appears that some have faded paint jobs and some have ‘fresh’ paint jobs!
