Peter J King Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Hi, I've just purchased a resin body shell for my Metroland railway c1922, in browsing the web I see a plethora of liveries for this loco, would someone care to show me which livery would be seen in around 1922. It would be a great help as I'm about to paint it, many thanks in anticipation, PJ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Western Master Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Precision paints do have a metropolitan maroon on their books but I do feel this is a somewhat darker shade of maroon than might be expected... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
