I find this subject very interesting. I've always wondered when the subject of correct color comes up how any one knows what the "correct" color is. If there's a survivor for any railroad still in as painted livery the"original" colors must have changed due to ultraviolet, weather, etc. Maybe it's spent the last 50+ years locked up in a windowless room. I'm not being flippent. I primarily model the T&P and most of my stable are what they called Swamp Holly Orange and Black. Of the dozen or more period color photos I've been able to check, there's a variation in the Orange because of type film used, lighting, etc. There's a fair consistency amongst the group, but I can see some not so subtle variations. If I have to explain it to myself or anyone else, it's simply fading due to age or whatever. Please accept my comment as not meant to criticize. To paraphrase the 70s rock group Chicago, 'Does anybody really know what color it is?' On Sep 7, 2021 3:19 PM, james miller <jimbro67@gmail.com> wrote:
