It's been mentioned that the Accurail gon list is not a witch hunt, but to get an understanding for which are correct or acceptable lettering schemes. Don't we miss Richard's and Ed's articles in the Journal?
Many of my modeling friends are perfectly happy with mismatched car type/paint schemes. As long as the paint job looks right they're good to go.
Example: When IM came out with meat company paint schemes on their ART reefer I rode along as two buddies picked up RTR models they'd ordered. When they dropped me off they asked to look at my color reefer book. They held the model's boxes up to the photos and were happy as pigs in slop when they saw they matched. I mentioned that the car was wrong, but they didn't listen.
