New Lionel S-3 “Hiawatha” colors question | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Wondered if anyone had any insight into the color grey Lionel will be using for the top of the new S-3 “Hiawatha” scheme. I’m sourcing a set of cars to go with and they’ve produced cars in the past with different color grey tops to them.

In ‘06 they offered a set of streamlined alum cars with a light grey top. (i.e. 6-29199). Then in ‘07 they offered a set of heavyweights with a darker grey top (i.e. 6-25515). Wondered which grey would most closely match the color being used for the top portion of the new S-3 being offered in the 2017 V2 catalog. Any insight would be most appreciated!! Thank you!

They show the engine in the Ryan and Dave show video from last week and it looks to be pretty light.
