mmartian22,

First of all[#welcome] to the forums.

As for Any Chesapeake & Ohio steam power;Black,with yellow(more gold) lettering.

Even though the pictures are in B & W,look in Huddleston’s book C & O Power.
You should be able to tell reasonably well.

Hey mmartian22, welcome and please come back often!

you might want to try the c@o historical society websites from more information on that scheme.
