The green I remember was an olive-drab color.

I use equal parts CNW Green and Black. These diesels faded over the years and so great variation exists. ATLAS does a great job on the S-1, SD 35 and RS 3.

As a side note. Raritan Bay Hobbies makes the best decal sets for just about everything CNJ. Call Gerard Bernet 732 494 2932.

Thanks for the info on CNJ color and for the info on decals. CNJ decals are not very common in North Carolina!!!
