Title: Alaska Paint Match
Post by: 91liberator on May 24, 2010, 11:11:41 PM
I have an Alaska GP 40 from the Mckinley set and am detailing it. I was able to match the blue easily but I can't seem to match the Yellow. What paint mfg and color do you use?

Dear 91,
The paint is mixed at the factory from color chips supplied by the railroad.
Have fun!

Hi, 91liberator
If you still want the paint colors for the Alaska railroad, pick up some Scalecoat D&H yellow and Scalecoat B&O royal blue for ARR blue and yellow.  You may also want to go to www.alaskarails.org (http://www.alaskarails.org) for more info on modeling the ARR.
