I am working on an ECW 90 ton depressed center flat in HO and a pair of the same from GHQ in N and would like to decorate all of them in appropraite NYC paint/decals. Are there any photographs of this flat available? What color did the NYC paint these cars?
I have both builder's and in-service photos of these cars which show both original and later lettering arrangements. Though both photos are b/w, it appears to me that, in both the 1941 builder's shot and the 1943 in-service photo, the cars are painted mineral red; perhaps Jeff English can enlighten us further on this subject. I can scan my photos for you if you can receive JPEG files.
