HO / Streamlined Dreyfuss Hudson Quick Question
June 05, 2025, 12:04:54 AM
I know it already too late to discuss changes or anything related to that, but I was curious enough to ask about the color of grey you decided to choose for the new Dreyfuss Hudsons.

There was a lot of conversation these past 5 years on what the right shade and lightness of the gray used on the actual prototype, and Lionel even broke the mold a bit and went with a really light shade of gray for their recent run of the Dreyfuss'.

Was there a document uncovered recently that gives more details to that shade lionel used, because it seems like you guys followed suite for the most part.

could the darker shade from the models in the past be due to the accidental public perception of seeing them in their sun damaged state thinking that was the color without realizing?

would love to hear any thoughts on this.

(Getting ready to throw money at the models once they appear, and mentally preparing myself for the amount of wailing my wallet will be making)
