What color is Benjamin Moore Night Train?

Benjamin Moore Night Train 1567 is a muted medium gray with a clear, restrained green cast. Its #7A847F value keeps the color grounded and low in saturation, so it reads more like a softened mineral gray than a bright sage. In daylight, the green undertone is easier to notice, while lower or warmer light can pull it toward a deeper, quieter gray. Night Train suits built-in cabinetry, a study, a mudroom, or an exterior trim scheme paired with warm white, black, natural oak, aged brass, and stone. On larger walls, it gives a room definition without the visual weight of a much darker charcoal.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 22.8%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
