The Lionel engine is done in a 2 tone blue paint, the main blue on the Engine is a light blue as shown in the photos but the Cab Roof, Number board on the side of the cab and trucks are all a dark blue that is fairly close to that of the dark blue on the passenger cars. I think if you look at the engine on the Williams passenger cars video at Trainworld at the link I gave it shows an all dark blue engine which was a Williams Engine these have been out of production for some time but matches the Williams Passenger cars better overall.
I just like the Lionel engine as the LionChief + features and control system are fun to use and the Williams passenger cars are very nicely done, roll freely. I like the other threads on the Blue Comet and colors correct sets etc. But this combination makes a for good price on a complete train set that runs well and looks good.
I think I might take to run on a garden railway this week will show some photos from the top and outside if I can.
