    Re: Dark Red in trains (was ...Dark Red LMS 4F 0-6-0 Freight Locomotive) —Stefan Garcia
   Jason and Steve, What is the color number for dk red and dk blue (in MLCad)? I'm trying to do a Napa Valley Alco rendering, and it uses dk red.

     (...) I suppose that's how I should've posted my previous message (to all, not just Mr. Railton and Mr. Barile). My apologies if I offended anyone. -Stefan- (22 years ago, 21-Aug-02, to lugnet.trains)

     (...) Here they are! Napa Valley (URL) Valley (alternate) (URL) Island (URL) Valley (URL) know that gold color doesn't exist, but it was too cool to pass up. Again, many of the schemes are downright impossible to build, and others would need extra (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.trains)

   (...) Huh. There used to be documentation of this (I thought), but I can't find one now. It's pretty simple - when you want to mix two of the colors from 0 to 15 (black, blue, green, teal, red, dark pink, brown, gray, dark gray, light blue, bright (...)
