Yeah, brain freeze - it's 1401 in the museum.? However, if 4501 is still green like it was in SR fan trip service, it should also be the standard SR green paint.

WOW! I thought the 4501 was still in Chattanooga at TVRM. Perhaps
you meant the 1401 at the Smithsonian?

Ostensibly, the 4501 in the Smithsonian was painted up fresh by SR before it was delivered and should therefore be the "correct" green. Finally, if your model is going to be seen normally in a typically lit basement, the actual color you paint it should be mixed to give it the appearance you like under those conditions.
