Repaint of a Lionel 124 station | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Pete in KansasOGR Forum Member

Recently I bought a lot that included a 124 Standard Gauge station. Since it is rough and I don't need another 124 I'm going to repaint it and put it up for sale. I'm thinking of doing the same two tone paint scheme as on my B&M 124 ( see Photo below) but wonder if doing it in Hunter Green and Cream would make it more sellable, anyone have any thoughts, Brown and Cream or Hunter Green and Cream?

The station that will be sold won't have the outside light fixtures but otherwise will be the same or similar if done in Green and Cream.

If you paint it back to it's original colors you will get more for it.

So i finished the station and I think it looks pretty good. I'll list it in the For sale section in a couple of weeks ( I'd do it sooner but my packer/shipper is visiting her friend). I think this paint scheme is attractive enough and unique enough that I should be able to sell it easily.

Color choice looks great, I think you'll have no problems selling it.
