Re: [CBQ] Burlington Refrigerator Express color schemes?

Just going from memory, the green with stripe scheme was applied to insulated 
boxcars in the 60s.  The yellow reefer scheme was pretty much standard for all 
reefers.

  Folks,
  I wonder if someone could offer some info about BREX paint schemes? For 40-ft 
steel cars,I've seen shots of 2 schemes: green w/broad yellow stripe near top 
of car (on which Burlington Route herald is placed), and solid yellow. Did the 
solid yellow scheme replacethe green one at some point, maybe ca. 1960? Any 
info would be appreciated.
  Thanks, 
  Fred R.
