C&O MOW green

Posted by jeep35 on Sunday, September 12, 2004 8:17 PM

I'd like to model some C&O Maintenance of way equipment. From the photos I've seen it is green. Could anyone tell me what shade of green it is and what manufacturer of paint makes a good match. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jim

Ah, its good to see someone else that is interested in MoW. I'm curious, what are you planning on modeling?

BTW some of the Chessie MoW green colors can be viewed here. Is this the same green that C&O used?
