But no cigar.  While it is true that I often stopped by the engine yard in Durango while en route between home in SoCal and college in Colorado Springs in the early sixties and on vacations in the mid- and late sixties, the green-jacket controversy had not yet sprouted – and even if it had, I did not have a supply of Moffat Green paint (neither original enamel nor modern urethane) nor a portable spray gun available.
