MOB and GFM paint query.

I recently acquired this delightful MOB BDe 4/4 railcar and a pristine GFM GDe 4/4.  The former was purchased in the UK at a price surprisingly comparable or cheaper than German and Swiss retailers and the latter from a Florida model shop (arrived within a week and no HMRC and RM charges!) I'd been after one of these GFM locos for years then three come along all at once!

 

Does anybody know if any specific paint is available for these four colours and any MOB decals for coaches please?

This loco started all this H0m folly about 30 years ago but over time the cream colour had 'yellowed' and the blue needs touching up here and there.

Nothing done with Rüthi at the moment. Focus is on finishing Parkend Marsh Sidings first!

Hello John

 

Modellbaustudio Born offers both an MOB blue and cream (RAL 5004 and RAL 1013). You may want to check if those exact colours are suitable for your models:

As to the decals, you could contact Friho on the off chance that he can supply decals from his various MOB offerings.

 

Best regards
