Southern Cresent's Heavyweight Interior Colors
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, June 16, 2005 10:22 PM
I have a set of k-line's southern crescent two tone green heavyweights. I tried to mail the southern railway historical society in locating the colors of the seats, floors, and walls of these cars, but I hadn't received a response. I have posted through many yahoo groups and various forums as well, with no information on these cars. I thought I might as well give this forum a try as well.

Does anyone have any idea or sources to find the colors of the three objects?

Thanks,
Dave

The floors were a dark green , walls were tan darker than beige almost a mustard color, and the seating was typical pullman green color. Actually these colors were very common during the heavyweight era. Hope this information helps.
