Here's the CSX Diversity in Motion AC6000. I bought both cab#s. Detailing is great, sound is fantastic. Not sure how I feel about the gray, seems a little lite.

Lionel and their colors!! It looks similar to the grey on the most recent run csx sd40-2's. I think its a little light. If you hit it with layer of dullcoat it would be a nice fresh out of the paint shop look. I went the full weathered route and it turned into one of my favorite diesels. I hated it before hand. This engine would be an excellent weathering candidate if your into that.
Would that darken it at all?
Dullcoat alone does exactly how it sounds. It will neutralize the new look. Now I have heard of guys putting additive in the dullcoat to give it a darker tint. I don’t have much experience here so I can’t speak much on it. I’ve only ever used it as it comes.
