    Kato pretty much has to paint it the same colour as the hand rails or the colour of the plastic as it is all one piece, although I don't think Atlas has trouble doing it :rolleyes:

    Happy Railroading!

    LL has the opposite problem with SOO SD60's in HO - the walkway is black on the model but white on the real thing.

    Painting the walkways black is fairly simple. Painting black walkways to match the body is not.
