Marc How do you get these colors? Is it just by sampling from photos of the loco or rolling stock in question? If so I may have some colors for you.Gary S

RE: How Can I post a color on the 3dtrains color chart
Just sampling photos generally won't get what you are looking for. The lighting(major problem) and inexact color match of the camera and reproduction(slightly less problem) will not give a color you want. Sampling a modeler's spec, or a company webpage, or a brand new actual object will be best. Bob

Agreed. The colors in the color chart use examples from Accu+Paint, Floquil (Testors), US Duco-color formulas as well as official color references (SNCF colors - thanks Clem!). In cases of gaps (still plenty to fill), examples were sent in an cross-checked by eye. These latter ones - while not perfect - are very close IMHO. Cheers!

OK then I'll see if I can't track down the types of paint that the CGW used for their maroon and see if I can't get a match that way,there were at least 2 shade of fresh out of the shops maroon(you could devote an entire list to fade variants of said color.Gary S
