The dates for the two photos below on rrpicturearchives are indicating
they were taken in '65, clearly showing them red :
http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=545797
http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1312819
The following is dated '64, also in red:

While there is no certainty about the dates, coming from two sources and
photographers with similar dates reinforces them for me.
