Hello Everyone,
I have never taken the step of repainting a loco before and am looking for some advice from the forum. I have a chance to get a Lionel Delaware and Hudson C420 with TMCC for a good price with the aim of repainting it for the Ottawa Central. The Ottawa Central locos were mostly black which seems simple but my concern is that the D&H has silver trucks and I am not sure how much more complicated that will make the paint job than if I just had to paint the shell. Based on your experience would this be a very difficult painting task for a novice? Let me know what you think.
(I realize that the Ottawa Central loco is not a C420 but an RS-18u which is fine for my toy train layout)
