Locomotive "Phases"

Hi All!
    I understand that the term "Phase" for locomotives is a fan construct to tell the difference between production changes. What I am looking for is the phase(s) of the following D&H locos:

RS-3
RS-11
U30C
U33C  (esp the ones from PC/Conrail)
and the U33Bs from Conrail

Can someone tell me where to get the information, or if they know....

I joined, but I am having huge problems in trying to gain access to their message boards. So I asked here...

Sorry that's happening to you, Bruce. I just thought you might have missed that post.
I cleared out all my D&H books except for Jim  Shaughnessy's.
He lists all the diesels up to the U 30-C but no mention of phases,  just build dates.
I checked in the text and could no mention  either.  It did state that some of the RS 3s were rebuilt in the late 50s early 60s.
Sorry I couldn't be more help.
