Night Train vs Northern Fire

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Night Train reads as grey, while Northern Fire reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Night Train (LRV 23) reflects noticeably more light than Northern Fire (LRV 14), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Night Train runs neutral while Northern Fire is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 47.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
