>From two separate e-mails from Gerald -

Generally, beginning in the early 50's, ex-frt cars in MoW service were nearly 
always orange but ex-pass cars could be orange or the 
silver/grey or original green.  Tank cars could be orange, silver/grey or 
black, usually the difference being if in potable water 
service or other use (fuel, used oil, etc).



and



Going back further, Boxcar red was the MOW color into the early 1950's, lasting 
longer on Lines West than on Lines East.



I don't think anyone has offered a specific date for the change.
