Color choices
This freight train rolls through a busy switchyard, its tank cars and boxcars trailing past signal lights and a switching tower. Color the locomotive’s body a bold shade and pick contrasting colors for the tank car and boxcars behind it. Shade the signal tower and lights in cool tones, and color the crisscrossing rails and gravel bed in muted gray.
Compare engine and cargo car colors
Color the train’s engine first, then use a contrasting palette for the cargo cars and the surrounding landscape.
