LIRR paint colors

Ed WalshOGR Forum Member

I am looking for an alternative source of paint to replicate the gray and orange color scheme of the LIRR. Floquil had some good color matches but they are getting scarce and I'd like to find an alternative brand for use in an airbrush.

Thanks,

Ed

You can always get custom colors from your local auto paint shop - at $80-$400 per QUART!!

Railroad Historical Societies are usually helpful in providing paint matching information.
