Athearn HO Genesis models. 2201 had a few details added, mainly antenna conduit and air line for horn. 2233 had the headlight moved to the nose, antenna conduit, and fuel tank skirts removed.
I found Floquil Santa Fe blue to be a pretty good match for the Athearn blue. The Athearn yellow was very tough to match and I spent quite a bit of time mixing Scalecoat Reefer Yellow with a few drops of their Santa Fe Red and Reefer Orange. One advantage of weathering your units is that it helps disguise color matching that isn't exact.

What brand paint and what color or colors did you use to match the yellow and/or blue paint on these units to add the parts you did? Thanks!
