Amtrak 60' express Boxcar Question
Posted by midwestfan on Monday, December 4, 2006 3:47 PM
I have an Walthers Amtrak 60' Express Boxcar (#932-6042). The car has three tiny holes in the roof at each end. I want to fill these and touch up the paint. My question is: Are these cars painted standard silver or platinum mist? Thanks

You can call Walther's customer support and ask them. They have always appeared to go out of their way to help when I have had to call them about various things in the past. Don't hold me to this, but I seem to remember seeing that platinum mist is the appropriate color for the Amtrak cars (that may have been for the prototype though).
