Are there still any patched Conrail locomotives still on active rails? If so, what are there numbers?

On Norfolk Southern I believe the last was painted into black and white before they released the Conrail heritage unit.
#8312, a dash 8 was the last crail to get the black paint ...i think it was sometime in 2014-jim
I've seen a few Dash 8s in Conrail Quality on recent you tube videos. The C40-8s are in the NS rebuild program at Roanoke getting new Dash 9 wide cabs and overhauled.
There's an end cab switcher at a grain elevator a few miles north of Worthington, MN, along the UP line. I don't think it's even patched.
Kent in SD
The CR changeover on both roads was quick. As of last August there was a patch SP GE unit on a UP coal train.
