I've found three CB&Q colour photos on a travel agent's site at 

http://www.railtravelcenter.com/    /Photos/Memorable Trains
1.  "Pioneer Zephyr 1934" shows a three car Zephyr at a very small passenger 
shelter during snow 

2. "#3004 1958" side view 

3. "E-5 #9952 1930's"  The date might be "slightly" incorrect! The photo shows 
Silver Pilot and is labelled for Texas Zephyr, whilst the overhead wiring is 
somewhat suggestive of IRM at Union. It appears to be coupled to an auxiliary 
power unit/lounge Apollo/Venus from the Twin Zephyr, and #960 Venus happens to 
also be at Union. It is still numbered 9952A (so it must be post-1955) and has 
red nose stripes rather than the black ones that 9611A now sports.
