michaelp Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 As the title suggests I have looked at Humbrol Midnight Blue to repaint a Heljan 'British Steel' Class 14 to NCB Blue, I think that Hattons NCB Heljans used a lighter shade of Blue but I would be interested to hear what others might use for NCB Blue or if Midnight Blue would be ok. Thanks in advance. Michael Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium JDW Posted November 26, 2014 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 26, 2014 Probably not a very helpful answer but I can't help thinking that NCB locos were probably worked quite hard and not painted or cleaned often so a slight difference in shade between the two locos might not be such a problem?

Mark Saunders Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 It all depends on when and where loco's were painted, but I believe if it looks right then it is right! For the late NCB reprints I picked up a can of Revell Lufthansa blue but have not tried it yet? Mark Saunders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
