Yees- Eric asked me to ensure the doors are unlocked, and large doors open if weather is suitable, so that people may see (with their eyes, not their fingers) the coach in its current splendor.
When viewing the car in person- notice the painted, lettered and varnished sample sitting on the end platform. Eric points out the green color is kicked slightly greener (less dark) with its two layers of varnish. We noticed the same effect when No 9’s black cab was varnished. The light having to go through the layers of varnish, then reflecting off the green, then back through the varnish, kicks the color tone in a way that plain gloss paint cannot do. Fascinating.
Thanks
Jason
