RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted April 5, 2010 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 5, 2010 On my ex Kernow Model Rail special edition 08, the pipes are not too disimilar to the blue used on the IE7 scroll bar, which has a hex colour value of C3D3FD (from Paint.Net).

Sam Moss Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Something along the lines of DP1 blue would be ok. When I helped paint the real 08590 last yeah I mixed a colour up. I think the original was something like french blue? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
