Its me again. <br /> <br />Went to the library and found out there were more books on another floor with trains. I checked out 4 more books, 2 on ACL, 1 on Amtrak, and 1 called Streamliner: NY to FL. (One being a general ACL and the other being passenger service of the ACL) <br /> <br />A ton of colorful interior pictures that I shall scan and put on a website to post here. And what isn't in color is in text I believe. <br /> <br />I also was reading through the 3 volumes of Passenger Train Journal that they had and picked out some more interior colors: <br /> <br />ROCK ISLAND:(cars named Wichita, Topeka, Ft. Worth and Houston) <br />-68-seat chair car: <br />cieling: light gray, <br />walls: greyed orchid, <br />window sills: royal purple, <br />upholstry: blue, <br />carpet - burgundy, <br />red drapes over windows <br /> <br />-76-seat chair car: <br />walls: pink shade <br />upholstry: garnet shade of red <br />carpet: rust <br />cieling: light sienna <br /> <br />CANADIAN PACIFIC:(steel lightweight cars) <br />maroon seats, light blue floor, and D&H gray walls <br /> <br />And Antonio, I'm sure you're dying to know the interior colors for the ACL cars...I'll see how far I get into reading these books befoer I get tired and give em in another post. <br /> <br />And please, if anyone has bought any of walthers NEW pullman cars, they're supposed to have prototype colored molding and I'd like to know the colors of the interiors. Each railroad had different colors and I don't know what the car in the advertisement in Model Railroader is from. <br /> <br />And if anyone knows the interior seating and floor colors for a combine or diner-lounge from either Pullman or Nickel Plate Road, please do share.
