The blue and yellow locos were LRCX leasors, IIRC, with a similiar paint scheme. For mine, I used SF yellow with a drop of red and CNW green. They are what I...
Paul, Thanks for the info. ... For a second I thought you meant that you put a drop of CNW green in the yellow.... then I quickly released that you meant that...
