Alaska Railroad passenger car repaints

Buzz would it be possible to update the ARR passenger cars to a darker blue with a little sheen. I believe these were from the RWA library originally done by you. The blue and yellow appear too light. The locomotives supplied with the route are very close and can be used for color reference. The passenger cars used are repaints using G-Trax/Trains.You can see the color difference in the attachment.

I live in Alaska and the locos and passenger cars are are the darker blue, they will fade to the lighter blue color. Also the picture you supplied appears to be an over exposed photo. The Loco I provided is from the Alaska Route. Colors in photographs can vary by lighting or exposure settings. Most of the rest of the photos on this page are more to the correct color. https://www.gettyimages.com/photos/alaska-railroad
Thanks in advance. *!!thnx!!*
