A recent announcement at www.aat-net.de (the website of All-American Trains of Kaarst, German) says Proto 2000 Alco RS-2's are forthcoming in the Delaware & Hudson's original black paint with yellow lettering (and, we may fervently hope, end stripes). Delivery is expected in December. This website has a good reputation for posting some product news earlier than any U.S. sources.
The D&H RS-2's Kato offered a few years ago are in the later, blue, gray & yellow lightning stripe livery (unfortunately with a shield herald on the end of the short hood as well as on the end of the long hood, which was unusual).
