Re: [Non-DoD Source] Re: [RealSTMFC] Was there ever a clinic on Delano-based paint and weathering?
Gatwood, Elden J SAD
Dave, Tony, and all;
I agree with everything being said, with the addition that while true for the PRR (I grew up in Pittsburgh in the sixties and seventies, and well remember the air, water and ground pollution), I also traveled the nation, and other area landscapes were far less filthy, but not entirely for freight cars. Some freight cars that were more restricted were not as filthy, some western roads in particular. And it did vary by car type.
I also agree with the >90% filthy observation. Absolutely.
My lesson out of that was: model from photographs of the specific car, in its period!
And yes, Delano IS the gold standard: Kodachrome…..they are the only slides I took that looked like the real thing.
