I've had great results with this recipe:

N&W Maroon (1925-1950)
2 parts Caboose red gloss( A 'part' is a full shot glass)
2 parts Tuscan Red gloss
5 drops Chrome silver
5 drops Gold
5 drops Poop Brown
4 drops Cub Yellow
11 drops Medium Purple Gloss

Weathering:
Armor Sand thinned 3 to 1 with lacquer thinner and very lightly  
applied to the lower parts of the Passenger cars & Trucks for an  
almost invisible particle of paint representing the traction sand.   
Use 35-45 lbs of air pressure.

3/4 bottle small Testors Flat Black, adding in 15 drops of Armor Sand  
to more closely represent coal soot.  this is also applied at higher  
than normal air pressure to get a spatter effect from the thicker  
paints. Paint tops and ends of all the passenger cars.  More on  
baggage and mail/storage cars.

Subject: Ideas for mixing N&W tuscan red

Back a number of years ago there was an article in Railroad Model  
Craftsman
about modernizing a Rivarossi coach and the author mentioned that he  
used
two parts caboose red with one part tuscan red to make the tuscan red  
used
on the model.  I don't recall off hand what the type of paint was, but  
it
was reported (for the time) as being a common mix used to create the  
proper
shade by some N&W modelers.  Can anyone help me with this?

I just got my new volume in the series of N&W Greatness from Herron Rail. I can't believe they can still find such wonderful N&W movies for us to enjoy.
?
This one is as good as or better than the previous 6 volumes! What luck to see an A actually breakdown right before your eyes! Wow!! So much for them being prerfect. I kinda liked the doubleheaded K2s with one Pg coach. Now there's an overpowereed train for sure.
?
Perhaps the best part for me was seeing and HEARING the Jawn Henry running light and in pusher service (what else?). Much quieter than I imagined. Great horns.
?
Even a pair of Redbirds! Yeah!!!
?
For those of us into passenger equipment there are several rare shots of the elusive EF box express cars and MS3 mail storage cars. Lots of other passenger equipment too.
?
I know some will gripe about the B&W footage but although I prefer color seeing good B&W is also a treat.
?
Hope everyone enjoys their newest Pokey Glory DVD and has a very Merry Christmas!

As we speak the BLI N&W Paragon 2 Y6bs are being delivered.

Question:

Are the Y6b?s boilers painted wrong {they are painted silver}.

I know that #2188 is the only one that did not get the lagging and had a silver smokebox.

It is my understanding that the rest with lagging had a black smokebox.

Please let me know if the BLI silver smokebox are correct or not.

Thanks

Looking at pics on the net, it looks like they received lagging when they received the new smokebox doors. And they all appear black once lagged.  I'm sure there were exceptions, as always.  I did come across something interesting. A lot of brass appears to have gray smokebox sides. Wonder if they copied someone's model? I don't see any #2191 pics on Google/VT Imagebase/nwhs.org database pics, etc....

2177 & 2188 did not get lagging. Have not seen the BLI silver smokebox, so cannot comment, but it would not have been silver without lagging anyway. Graphite appeared to be a flat gray.  The PCM Y6b was about right.      Jim Nichols

2177 was the other Y6b that wasn't shrouded. If they were shrouded the  
smoke box was painted black. Only the front of the smoke box was painted a  
silvery heat resistant graphite paint.

JIM: You are correct that 2177 and 2188 did not get lagging and were graphite. The model has an excellent graphite color. I just got done running one and it ran flawlessly. Thanks for correcting me, silver was not a good word/description to use.

Tony

You can change the whistle by CV 115 and the whistle volume by CV 129.

The only recording I have heard of the J's whistle revealed a very flat and dull sound so you may have the right sound, but it's not that good is it!

I changed mine to something far nicer by playing with the settings on CV 115.  

Happy Christmas!

Tony

You can change the whistle by CV 115 and the whistle volume by CV 129.

The only recording I have heard of the J's whistle revealed a very flat and dull sound so you may have the right sound, but it's not that good is it!

I changed mine to something far nicer by playing with the settings on CV 115.? 

Happy Christmas!

Steve,

2177 was the other Y6b that wasn't shrouded. If they were shrouded the smoke box was painted black. Only the front of the smoke box was painted a silvery heat resistant graphite paint.

I believe I know the answer to this question, but there seems to always to
be an exception to every rule.

Did the N&W steam, particularly the J's ever have a double beam headlight in
the 50's?

The reason I asked this question is that on the front cover of Dixon's new
book that was just released is an illustration of the N&W J 604 by Robert
West with a double headlight.  It just strikes me funny that a book is
printed about the history of the N&W Powhatan Arrow and the cover isn't
historically correct.  Just an observation.

When I first saw the Powhatan Arrow cover, my rivet-counting tendencies came to the fore, and I had to wonder - why not get the cover right, it was a zero-cost option.  Then there's the colorized and over-enhanced Y6 cover to consider.
