When you look at videos or pictures of N&W prototypes the colors go through a range of variation. As the N&W passenger train passes by the different colors are amazing. I've pretty much stopped losing sleep over the various colors on models. If it has more red than PRR Tuscan and stays less red that a fire engine it probably matches one of the cars going by on a N&W passenger consist in the 1950's.</SPAN></DIV>
