I haven?t used it yet but I found a bottle of model master acrylic caboose red on amazon for about $6. Since it?s acrylic I would imagine you?d have to be very careful not to warp the wood.

Actually,  the N&W color was closer to Floquil's signal red than to their caboose red.

As with anything,  color is an exercise in visual comparisons and any bright red will be good.  Avoid something that looks orangey or pink or maroon (or brown) and with any application of weathering you will be right where you want to be.
