Re: [CBQ] Rapido SW1200

Here you go. I took this photo under 5000 K lights.

 

Back Row, Left to Right: Model Flex repaint, BLI (recent issue), Stewart/Bowser

Front Row, Left to Right: Athearn, Rapido, Walthers P2K (recent issue)

 

The rest of the roster is packed, but I can tell you that some of the earlier BLI are dark like the Rapido with a hint of blue, and the Bachman S-2 is a ridiculous shade of light gray with a hint of brown. You’re seeing the best grays compared to the Rapido and BLI, the others are pretty close to correct to my eye.

Nelson, I would be interested in seeing a photo if you can post one.  The photo on the Rapido website of the CB&Q model I saw appeared to have been shot outdoors, which of course makes a difference in how the color is perceived.

 

thanks,
