That would be great, if you have it handy.
I will also have a look at that Rustoleum product, as another possibility.
I am not sure where I would ever find an actual sample to have computer matched. That is why I am looking for a color that someone has already used, and is happy with.

Jeff, The green (Behr paint at Home Depot) I used was "Park Picnic." The code on the paint sample is P-390-7. As you might expect there are loads of green shades that might suit a Lionel PW style layout so check around.
Another tip: I frequently have the paint guys make up 2-3 sample sizes of different shades and then I paint them on pieces of scrap wood to see how they turn out. An easy and inexpensive way to "test drive" different shades 'til you find what you like.
