Thanks for the comments, the KYSO has used GN Glacier green and Southern Rwy. Sylvan green for 35yrs or so
in various schemes and lettering styles.
Crispy and Simon there is an outgoing package in my box for pickup today. USPS says Wed delivery to Troy. |

Thank you!

...have you considered continuing the stainless steel look from the back plate on the back of the Hiawatha observation car
to separate the paint colors with silver pin stripes along the window bands and top edge of the roof?
I've thought about similar stripes but just don't have the ambition to do that. The PAs were going to be Aluminum
or Stainless with the dark green trim but my test paintjob was a disaster. None of the rousing success some on
Atlas reported with Alcad II, so. I think it will be a scheme similar to the FAs. Many years ago I did an A/B set of
Hobbytown Alcos in the two tone green with NYC like lightning stripes , the lighter green in the band, dark green
overall and white stripes. Champ decals not around to do that again. |

Karl,
I've used SMP Industries and Microscale stripes with great success on my New Haven Warm Orange and green scheme FA's, FB's and PA's.
Tedious work but the results were worth it. Again it's just a thought. |

Jon, . .It's good to hear from you indeed, and to receive the good news that you and your family are OK.
After watching several post-storm videos (on the internet) of the McDonald area, we were beginning to
have concerns about your well-being. The videos were taken from someone's car as they traveled down
several two-lane roads in your area.

Thanks so much guys.
Yea the rubberneckers have been hard at it with the photos and videos. Some victims have felt more victimized like their misery has been on morbid display for all the gawkers(sp) with cameras. I just found out that my wife's distant cousin has had his house and auto shop destroyed. The two story house was moved off its foundation and dropped half on and half off the foundation. I just saw it today.
