P&LE Pacemaker Green

[Anonymous]

Hi (Mr.) Balearic,

I have been off the computer for several days. I wanted to thank you for taking the time to reply to my question. Since my orginal post, I have been told that the color Pacemaker Green is a "glossy" olive green and was sometimes called Jade Green. Thank you for your response.....

I remember reading several years ago that P&LE green was an olive green, not the Century (jade) green that NYC used on freight cars and a few E units.

Try a N.Y.C. Jade/Pacemaker Green 1 Oz. from Floquil #F110330

Pollycoat has a simiar paint if you're not into solvent based paint.

Both are at the Testor's Web site http://www.testors.com

I just purchased Richard Borkowki's book "Pittsburgh and Lake Erie in Color -Vol. 2". After looking at all those wonderful photographs, of course I have to build a P&LE unit for my NYC collection. Does anyone know if Pacemaker Green paint is commercially made, and if not, what the color mixtures might be? This is my first post. I hope I'm in the correct forum.

Thank you in advance.
