Magazine Articles:
  • "Diesel Detail: GE B23-7 as Conrail 1905 and 1968." Railmodel Journal. Aug 01, 49.

  • "Build A Conrail General Electric B23-7," David Bontrager. Model Railroader. April 93, 107-11.
    Brief prototype info followed by HO detailing project. No proto photos. Does a good job of telling how to model a Conrail B23-7 using a Rail Power Products shell. Since the shell was made using upgraded tooling, it's far superior to RPP's earlier efforts such as the C32-8 and C30-7.

  • "Conrail GE's Dash 7&8 Painting Guide." Mainline Modeler. Feb 89, 73-76.
    This is a great little article that gives the exact placement for lettering and what colors are painted where for all of Conrail's Dash 7 and Dash 8 locos from B23-7 to B40-8. Loco and painting diagrams included, plus a number of photos, most b&w.
