Actual color of NDC S-6 units?

[trainspot]

Can anyone tell me the exact current color of the 2 S-6 units that NDC uses? They are #51 and 101 and were ex-UM&P. The photos I've seen make it hard to tell if they are black or dark green.
Thanks!

Having seen and photoed 101 they are black.

Yes, the 101 is black. They don't have#51 anymore. They have an RS3m(former Conrail) and is black with yellow chevrons on the ends.

Whhat happened to # 51?

[obsessed railfan]

As far as I know, they scrapped #51 in the late nineties. It's a shame because S-6's are rare they days.

I forgot to mention an interesting sidenote- NDC hasn't moved a car in three months! The same old covered hopper is still in their yard from January!

Thanks to all for your replies. Does anyone know for sure if #51 was scrapped, or moved to another location. Thanks!

I'm pretty sure 51 is still around there somehwere, it was still there about a year ago. The units are definitely black. Can't believe they have no more traffic, last I saw there must've been 30+ cars there!
