Hello All,

I have been playing around in MS Paint with some different colors for my favorite RR, The Providence And Worcester. I used their paint scheme from the mid 1980's to start with. I don't know why but ever since I saw a picture of their #2206 in this scheme I have loved it. The first orange one is what the scheme looked like. The orange color may be a bit off. But you can get the idea. What follows are different color variations based on this scheme. I left some with the yellow handrails and then did a variant of the variant with white handrails. Not sure what I like best. Let me know what you think.

On a related note, you can meet Josh at Worcester union Station on weekends. He's usually there on saturdays watching CSX (the P&W doesn't work on saturdays)
 
I like the black one Kevin! You should send one to P&W and suggest a heritage theme ;)
