yes & no. Years back both ends of the system used mineral red for MoW colors but Lines East converted to the familiar 'safety orange' several years before Lines West did & allegedly some MoW equipment on Lines West, especially in remote areas, remained in the original color well into the 50's. I do not know though if they also used the dark green for derricks aka wreckers rather than the common black. Bernie Corbin's home layout had Q MoW equipment with most in orange but some in the red; he was my first source of info on that color change. --- In CBQ@yahoogroups.com, "Jonathan Harris" <jonathanharris@...> wrote: > > Whoa whoa whoa! > > Gerald, are you saying there were differences in the way Lines East and West > equipment, buildings, etc. were painted??
