Jonathan,
I was at my local dealer yesterday. He had a new catalog from
Branchline. There was a picture of one of FW&D cars in the sliver scheme
on the page with the FW&D cars listed, so I would assume this is the
paint scheme those cars will be produced in.
Quite frankly I am interested in seeing the shadow lined paint scheme
(even though it does not match my modeling period) just to see how well
they do it.
