N&W Bldg Colors

[NW Mailing List]

David

A few years ago, I made a similar inquiry about the cream and light green that was spec's in the N&W Std. Specs. Attached is what Joe Shaw sent from the archives. This color combo is what I am using in my basement hallway leading into my layout.

Hope this helps

Merry Christmas to all!

Hi,

If you mean the standard combination stations or other wood frame construction.

There are a few schemes over the years. There is the cream with brown trim. There is the white with green trim. The white was a newer scheme, new being late steam were. However, they did not change all the buildings at once or even ever.

If you are modeling, you can look up the exact depot. You should be able to notice the cream color vs. White in old photos. Or you can pick new/old colors, or just pick one you like better.
