    Is there anyone here who can do a color swap for me? I'd like to take the black and green scheme on the switcher below and turn the gray on the heritage Wabash unit black and turn the blue into PC green.

    Bonus points if you can add the mating worms under the radiator and Penn Central on the body.

    This is extremely quick and dirty, but it gives you a rough idea of what it would look like. To do a better job of masking would take quite a while. The green probably needs a bit of blue.

    Basically you mask off each color and use the Levels feature to darken the gray, and the Hue/Saturation/Lightness feature to lighten the blue and change its color.

    Okay, gives me a good idea. I've just got MSPaint to do my photo editing ideas. Trying to work out a fantasy scheme for Penn Central if they had been able to make things work. Something incorporating the PC green and the NYC lightning stripe. Penn Central scheme.png
