<DIV>I've had great results with this recipe:</DIV>
<DIV><BR>
<DIV>N&W Maroon (1925-1950)</DIV>
<DIV>2 parts Caboose red gloss( A 'part' is a full shot glass)</DIV>
<DIV>2 parts Tuscan Red gloss</DIV>
<DIV>5 drops Chrome silver</DIV>
<DIV>5 drops Gold</DIV>
<DIV>5 drops Poop Brown</DIV>
<DIV>4 drops Cub Yellow</DIV>
<DIV>11 drops Medium Purple Gloss</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Weathering:</DIV>
<DIV>Armor Sand thinned 3 to 1 with lacquer thinner and very lightly applied to the lower parts of the Passenger cars & Trucks for an almost invisible particle of paint representing the traction sand. Use 35-45 lbs of air pressure.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>3/4 bottle small Testors Flat Black, adding in 15 drops of Armor Sand to more closely represent coal soot. this is also applied at higher than normal air pressure to get a spatter effect from the thicker paints. Paint tops and ends of all the passenger cars. More on baggage and mail/storage cars.</DIV>
