Southern Railroad paint question.

Hello, does anyone know what the correct colors would be for a Southern Railroad Tuxedo black diesel with the imitation silver stripe? The stripe isn’t really white or gray or silver kind of a mix of all three. If you know what colors would work in Floquil or Polly S that would be great. Thank you in advance.

The closest I ever came was a 2:1 ratio of reefer gray and white. Not perfect, but close. Works with either Floquil or Polly S.

The information is from 1990, but it should be a good starting point in finding just the right aluminum color for the stripe…

Thank you guys i’ll give it a try.
