P2K GP30

This board is the place where questions and information specific to MODELING the Reading Company, its equipment and operations can be shared - questions like "What was the window arrangement of AF Tower in Alburtis?" and "What color paint do YOU use to paint the Reading's cream-and-brown buildings?" We also want to hear about YOUR Reading modeling projects!

In all the photos posted, reviewing the lighting, the weathering and type of film used, the green still appears to have much more of an "olive" tint whereas the P2k model is very green.
I saw and took photos in the mid-60s of the NH EP-5s. In one shot where there are 2 of the motors alongside eachother, the red on the nose of one was lighter than on the other, yet they were both painted serial #428 red/orange.
