Green? Looks blue to me Unless the picture makes it look blue, however, most of the P42 pics I have researched look blue but one or two look teal in the bright sun. If you want it green, though, I will be glad to do so. www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1187429

Is anyone interested in this repaint. If so what number should I use for it? I am not at all familliar with what numbers VIA has used for it's existing locos. Remember it is a fictional number.

That colour is dark blue, light green, teal....all at once.
It's actually a teal, but has a metal flake in it. Depending on the lighting conditions, the same locomotive can look like its been given a repaint - the difference can be that drastic.
With two exceptions though - 914 and 917 have been repainted. 914 is now in the same blue as the LRC cars, and 917 has been repainted into a sickly shade of green.

Unfortunately I can't reproduce that effect here. This is the closest I could get for those who wanted the colors close so anyone wanting another shade will just have to create their own. My first color was more blue than this is but they didnt like it. I'm not complaining, just stating the facts as to how I arrived at this color.............Thanks for your feedback.....JJ
P.S. As I stated before, I am totally unfamilliar with VIA eqiupment and paint schemes.
