If you are looking for typical US brand model railroad paints, than you may have to order them directly from the US.

Humbrol, Tamiya, Revell, or Vallejo paints are available from various online sources, one of them being e models.

I have also used Citadel Acrylic Paints for many things…main use was Wargaming figures:

It appears some of the rules have changed, in direct relation to Our discussion on USPS Paint shipping. I will do some more research on the matter and get back to You by e-mail:

Rapido Trains has their “Proto Paint” line and they do have a good foothold in the British model train industry.
