Title: Suggestion for paint shade.
Post by: Roy Parkes on February 10, 2015, 19:21

Any suggestions as to what paint I can use so that it is similar to the Peco GR-201U brown unlettered Open Wagon.

Thanks.

As there the L&B wagons in southern livery un lettered then I would say try
P91 L.S.W.R. / S.R. Freight Wagon Brown from Phoenix paints

The Phoenix Paints SR Brown is quite dark. I mix in some grey to lighten and vary the tone to something nearer the Peco colour.
