Prototypical paint color names for ATSF and BNSF
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, March 31, 2005 7:20 PM
Can someone tell me the correct names for the coloring of ATSF and BNSF units? Greens, Reds, Yellows, Silvers, and Oranges, and Blues. I want to paint the AC on my dash 9 Santa Fe (red and silver) orange like some engines have instead of patching BNSF, they just paint the AC orange. What would be the best way for me to do this? The engine is a Kato, road # 653. I know that this # engine just got repainted in an H2 scheme but I thought that this would be fun even if it is not prototypically correct. Thanks, Ben
