Model Railroader Prototype information for the modeler

I want to paint my Locomotives in the same scheme as the Maryland Midland
orange and blue.
What would be the best match for the model paints out there???
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I posted in the Trains forum and didnt get any reply [:(]

Thank you in advance[:)]

Erik,
I haven’t checked it, but you can determine whether the MM livery is included in the Bill Havrilla color mixes at the JAShaw Web site:

Scroll down on the Shaw home page.

Here’s a link to the Maryland Midland portion of their site concerning prototypical equipment:

Karl is a fellow poster who models & photos the MM - his web site is:

I’ve photo’d their engines; nice orange on blue on old WM territory!

HTH

Happy Railroading
