I recall at least one discussion thread a year or two ago about what
model paints to use for CB&Q depots, but am wondering what the
prevailing sentiment is currently for decorating structures.

For Indian Red;
I've seen suggestions of Box Car Red, Floquil Rock Island Maroon, and
Polly Scale Mineral Red.

For Bronze Green;
I've seen suggestions of Floquil Pullman Green, C&NW Green, and Polly
Scale FEC Green.

Favorites? Suggestions?

What paint would you recommend for steel structures like water columns,
bridges, etc.? 

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
