I actually mentioned that dark blay might have been a better choice for the roof
in the MOC pages text. I'm a huge fan of new colors, no insult at all! I only

second stack in that color palette is even closer, but I think it only comes in
two or three brinck elements!

The current orange looks perfect to me but then I am colour blind so that (...) (20 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.trains)
