Amtrak color
Posted by salvine on Wednesday, January 18, 2012 7:44 PM

Just looking for the basic color. I'm wondering about MM 4724 Marine Corps green? If you know the cammo options that would be great too.

 

TIA

Which version of the Amtrak - you need to be a little more specific.

Straight LVTP7s came in many colors.  They were around during the MERDC camo time.  Check here for more details.  They were not usually in a single green color.

Some examples:

Schemes for the LVTP7 vary widely depending on year and nation.  When first introduced to the US Marine Corps the vehicles wore the same finish as their LVTP5 predecessors – overall dark green.  They later adopted the MERDC of differing climatic schemes.  In foreign service they have worn overall green, variations similar to the US MERDC finished P7s and those still serving in Brazil carry a NATO pattern but have a sheen since CARC paint was not used.
