It looks like The type and color of the lettering are being narrowed down.
Could you suggest a Microscale set to use?

Marshall, I found a picture of a pullman in a picture dated 1957 that had
Pullman on the letterboard and the style looked like railroad roman. I could
not identify the color of the lettering. Did the sleepers on the Q have
bronze gold or dulux gold lettering?


I haven't seen documentation on it, but I recall hearing somewhere that
Pullmans repainted after around the mid-forties got duluxe lettering. It
was pretty close to when the divestiture took place, I think -
