4-O-4 gets a little color

The museum's 4-O-4 airliner starts to get some new highlights.
The 4-O-4 is looking better with some fresh gold paint.  The color scheme will resemble the prototype.  The painters expect to be finished within the next few weeks, weather permitting.  The museum is already talking about a special day to show off the refreshed aircraft. Stay tuned.
The tail and stripes are being painted gold.
