I just knew if I didn't start a new thread on 478 it would hide in the 315 thread but I put it there anyway. duh
Jeff was touch up the paint on 478 by the roundhouse Sat. He told me someone found an old can of paint in Chama marked boiler jacket green. Jeff had it computer matched and some polyurethane paint made. I don't know how long it has been green but it was nice and shiny Sat. To me, it just looks right. The lettering on the tender looks good too.
See what you think.
