Not only a font of useless information, but also a hotbed of shameless self-promotion!  Is this a great country, or what? :D

You need some green and black, lol. How are you doing your walkways? Reason I ask is maybe you guys have some up with something better than disassembling, masking, and spray painting.

I think you'd be OK just to weather the black walkways to gray/dirt. Here's a new SD40-2, and you can see how dark the walkways had already become.



-snip-

I had always though BN's walkways were black, but this photo for some reason has me second guessing. Except for the spots of blue, it's almost the same color as some pictures of the walkways on BN units.

If N scale had good SD40-2s, C30-7s, U30Cs, SD45s, SD40s, and SW10s; I'd be in N scale.
