color:#1F497D'>I’m not sure when the change was made either, but if your signal
head has seven lights, then amber is correct, since the change to color
position lights involved blanking the center (seventh) light. However, if you
are modeling circa 1968, then color position lights probably had replaced the
amber lights, but your signal head would have only six lights. Jim Nichols<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"MS Sans Serif","serif"'>Mr
Nichols; Thanks for you answer. I am modeling the N&W circa 1968 and NS
circa 2000 (not both at the same time!) and for as long as I have been chasing
the N&W, since about 1985, I note that the amber lights had been replaced
with red, green and amber in the position light signals. Does anyone know what
time frame that change was made in? I do know that the Pennsy used all amber in
electrified territory and red, green and amber in diesel territory; but again,
not sure when the change was made. Thanks. Dan Mulhearn<o:p></o:p></span></p>
