Mark, <br /> <br />The Poly Scale PRR Tuscan (414167) is too far off for me . I will take a look at the E/L Maroon (414242) and/or their Rock Island Maroon (414248). These seem like good possibilities. <br /> <br />Presently, I am very close to the Walthers SS streamliner tuscan using Poly Scale's PRR Tuscan (1 part) + Boxcar Red (1part) + Cabose Red (2 parts). Still not quite there. <br />However, this can work for head end equipment with additional weathering ( 50 percent Grimy Black and water mixture plus powders). <br /> <br />Color photos (books/internet) show trains with differing tuscan shades. I also remember them being this way. <br /> <br />In September , we are moving into a new house in Gettysburg. At that time, I hope to start work on a modules representing PRR Baltimore to Williamsport in the mid 1950's. <br /> <br />Today, I am a member of the Northern Virginia Model Railroaders, Vienna, VA. This provides me with a large layout to run on. <br /> <br />Thank you for your help. <br /> <br />jb <br /> <br /> <br />
