I kind of assumed that N&W used a spray system, but the comments regarding the question tended to indicate a number of roads brush painted by hand.From the original finish on the Class J, it sure looks sprayed to me. But good brush painters can get a great finish.But in the steam era, how were locomotives painted at Roanoke Shops?BestKen Miller________________________________________NW-Mailing-List at nwhs.orgTo change your subscription go tohttp://list.nwhs.org/mailman/options/nw-mailing-listBrowse the NW-Mailing-List archives athttp://list.nwhs.org/pipermail/nw-mailing-list/
