I worked with John Lee several years ago supplying him with the actual NYNH&H paint chips for the Accu-flex NH colors. I saw him in W. Springfield about 3 years ago. Be aware Antonio, that no one yet makes the correct NH #13 Pullman Green used on electrics and some diesels.

Way to go on working with John Lee! Glad to know that a New Haven fan supplied the prototype color samples. John is a very down to earth modeler. I hope he returns to the H&R Train show again this coming fall.

I appreciate the heads up on the Pullman Green. My electric units will be in the McGinnis scheme while I hope to have one Alco diesel hood unit in the black and white "striper".

Cheers!

Update,

There was a Fratesci HO EP4 on Ebay not too long ago, brand new. I should have paid more attention to the closing time. The fortunate winner got it for less than $100!

Hopefully more of these units will show up on ebay.

Im trying to custom paint an n scale boxcar into a NH "New Era" scheme. Are there any specific colors I should try to use for this project? Thanks!

 

Check out the Balfour and Colucci Creek Southern Railroad, my proto-freelanced N scale model railroad, at bccsrailroad.weebly.com or on Youtube on my channel, N Scale Train Boy.
