The MoPac may have painted boilers green on some passenger locomotives in the late 1800, but no Pacifics received green boilers. Mike Adams wrote a long time ago that the MP may have thought about it, as they did with streamlining steam, but neither happened. So, black with graphite smokebox and ash pans is the colors you want. Jerry Michels
