“I am restoring a Lionel 773 Hudson. After some considerable searching and procuring pieces to put the unit back to OE condition, I am looking for information about the paint for the boiler. Also, what coating was put on the powdered drive wheels? Three of the drivers had some rust on them and that has effected the black surface coating. Thanks in advance. Any help as to web sites, or other info for restoration would be great.”
