   All this stuff is available to them they just chose to ignore it. There's plenty of people
 in Roanoke with knowledge to get it right. Ken Miller , Richard Shell , Charlie Schlotthober
and others But VMT knows better and does not seek there advise. Lets just hope
they never repaint the 611 because she looks as good as she's ever going to

  I have a copy of the N&W's original 1776 blueprints (including a star template) for painting it into the bicentennial scheme  (somewhere between Arkansas and Georgia).  It included the specifics for the paints/colors used.  Would this information be of any value if I can find them?

  So far just about everything they VMT has repainted has been the wrong color

  Instruction Car, 1135 and the 1776 if some one doesn't help them out . 

  Richard your down there see if you can steer them in the right direction. This

  stuff is not rocket science.

    Maybe if it goes to Chattanooga the color will be correct...

     

    The paint they have on the 1135 is nowhere near correct for N&W blue.

     

    Thanks,

      NW 1776 will be moving today from the Virginia Museum of Transportation to Shaffers Crossing. 

      Following one or two days of attention to its trucks it will move to Chattanooga for repainting.
