Which Pine Tree is more correct?

I have an IM F7 in the NP Pine Tree scheme and I just received my CCS Pine Tree coaches.  The middle band of green is very different.  So which one is more correct?

I haven't seen either one, so can't give an opinion.  However, considering how far off CCS's Big Sky Blue is, I'd venture a guess that IM's is probably closer.

The BSB was very, very dark in my opinion!

Brian:  Exactly.  Not an ugly color, but nowhere near BSB.  Their other GN/BN colors haven't been bad, but both BSB cars I have, from different runs, were that same dark blue.  I wonder if it was mislabeled, and should have belonged to another road?

I won my BSB baggage car on EBay for $14 NIB, so I can't really complain but boy was I a little surprised when I got it out of the box.  Good yard filler for my layout in the coach yard.
