Does any one know what model railroad color paints are the closest match to the Red and Yellow Paint scheme of the mid 1970's

There are several paints on the market that come pretty close. I would suggest checking out the Rock Island Technical society's website and email discussion forum for more answers. Those fella's have all the RI info you could ever want. In fact, I believe that is where Athearn has turned for paint matching questions on the past as well.
