The photo Tim posted shows a freshly-painted structure. I assume this
was a mineral red or red oxide color. 

My question: was this the same "red" as CB&Q depots were painted? And
was it the same color that wooden water towers (and/or the later steel
CB&I ones) were painted? 

Second question: with regard to the Q's wooden water towers, was it
ever the practice to paint them in a Burlington red/green scheme
(probably red tank and green base/trestle-work), or were they painted
solid red?

Thanks for any information.
Jonathan
