Ray George's book Missouri-Kansas-Texas Lines in Color has plenty of photos of the various E and F units in the Deramus red/black paint scheme. Page 63 shows a couple of FP-7's on Tx Spec. Roof is solid black from rear to a location approximately even with the top front corner of the side window, and then straight across to the other side. Originally, rest of carbody was red (darker than the previous Duco red), including the shrouding over the fuel tank. Fuel tanks and trucks black. About 1961, the pilots got painted black, too. Barriger modifications: new Katy shield, everything black below the bottom of the carbody. The Alcos were slightly different. <br /> <br />Check the book out if this is insufficient.
