Re: Trainz in the Calico Mountains: Sunrise Canyon/Palm Borate

Norm, All striping would be Aluminum. On a Baldwin spec the second notation in Olive Green & Aluminum would apply to all striping or anything that looks white. If there were multiple stripes on the domes one of them could have been red or another color, but this is a pretty straightforward schem...
