When did the CSX YN3B paint scheme come into service?

I'm just curious into know when the dinky boxcar logo paint scheme was put into service, and what locomotive was the first to receive it.
Late 2011 it appears, and I believe that CSX 950 was the first to get YN3b.
Interestingly enough, there were two CSX 950s. The first one was built in 2009 and wore YN3, but never made it into service, it appears (the only photos of it are on GE's test track). The current CSX 950 was built in November of 2011.
