Conrail Cyclopedia GE B40-8: References Magazine Articles: "General Electric's Dash 8-40B," Ken Goslett, Eric Neubauer. Railroad Model Craftsman. Jan 94, 71-75. Prototypical overview of the B40-8. Best part is that the HO drawing is of a Conrail unit. Roster included. CR 5076 "Conrail's B40-8 'Safety Boats'," Ed Sanicky. Model Railroading. April 93, 24-25, 62-64. Uses the Rail Power Products HO kit as the basis for the model. No proto info, just modeling. The photos are lousy and small. The CRCyc photos are much better, which amazes me! CR 5080, 5063, 5080, 5081 "The General Electric Dash 8 40B," Gordon Odegard. Model Railroader. April 89, 84-88. Overview of the prototype, plus HO scale diagram. CR 5068 b&w "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.
