Just to add more fuel to the fire, all the burro cranes I saw on 4960 fan trips were painted yellow. Aurora and Mendoza specifically.

You posed two questions with your original query. Were Burro cranes painted orange and how quickly, after 1949, would your particular crane have been repainted. We know that some/all would have been repainted in due course but when we don’t know.

All we know from the 1949 book is that yellow appears to have been the standard Burro advertised colour but there is no indication in your question as to how old the unit was in 1950, which may have a bearing on repainting. (Were they always offered for sale in yellow? If it was ordered after orange had been selected for MoW units, might they have painted it orange prior to sale?) We know that the Burlington was noted for its frugality and that Burro cranes were unlikely to be at the top of repainting priorities, and therefore unlikely to be repainted before they needed it.

Evidently, there are no colour photos of Burro cranes in the period immediately after 1950 and no data to show how quickly the repainting was undertaken. So, I suggest that you paint the model whatever colour you want and challenge any complainants to prove you wrong!

Looking at it on my large monitor, I agree with Hol - fades orange.
