I'm a newbie to this site. Hoping somebody can help. Our park system has an old WC caboose that needs painting. Is there any sort of formal or suggested process for painting this caboose? How does one go about finding out the original paint colors. We want to make sure we do this right.

Does it matter who paints it? Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

There is one ex Green Bay and Western, Ex Wisconsin Central caboose that is used for back up moves in Appleton WI. It is used almost daily on the weekdays some weekend jobs also. They keep it at the Appleton yard when not in use.
