Does any one know who makes a range of paints that exactly match the colours Bachmann use on their diesels? Particularly the grey roof colour on the EE Type 1 Class 20 D8134 green locomotive. Thanks.

None to my knowledge, but (for example) when there's a significant shade difference between the BR blues used by Bachmann, Hornby and Heljan you're expecting a lot really.

BR standard loco blue was just that, a standard colour and only varied due to fading or weathering. There were of course other shades of blue used at different times including electric blue on the AC loco's in the early 1960s, but this is not normally referred to as BR blue. ;-)
