Got yet another one for my Forum friends. Does anybody have a good color match for the roof color of the old AHM/Rivarossi Milwaukee passenger cars and a decal match for the lettering? (For those that don’t remember the cars, there are plenty of them on eBay to review.)
I continue to work with our local musrun on a Milwaukee yard display. (It was damaged a few years ago due to a roof leak and it is in the process of being rebuilt and improved.) I would like to put a full steam era passenger train on it using some existing AHM cars and possibly repainting some other cars that I was given 5 and a half years ago as needed. (Yes they’re not exactly prototype but most people looking at them won’t know the difference.) I think have the orange figured out but the roof color has me stumped.
Second, the only commercial set of decals I find that has the gold color letters that match the cars at least to my eyeball is OOP.
As usual, any suggestions would be most appreciated.
