I have an old HO scale NH “American Flyer” coach kit that I’d like to finish. Assembly of the Eastern Car Works kit was pretty easy…once I figured out the underbody details, but that’s another story [:D]
What I need to know, is what color green did the New Haven use on these cars? Did they get repainted under Penn Central?
Any help is appreciated.
Some were repainted under Penn Central, but a lot of the jobs were half-“hearted” so to speak.
Some were re-painted, others had just logo’s painted.
It depends what scheme you want. Could be #13 NH Pullman Green, #212 Hunter Green, or #401 Exterior Green.
McGinnis scheme was black with red-orange (#409) over the window band.
Thanks! Now I can finally fini***hat coach
