Posted by Jackson Park B Train on Tue Jul 13 22:33:34 2010, in response to Re: Grand Central Secrets, posted by Broadway Lion on Tue Jul 13 21:57:14 2010. about the colors. first the blue in the pic is pretty much Conrail medium blue. Second when Roosevelt was POTUS many trains were no longer Pullman Green. PRR was Tuscan, and by Roosevelt's second term B&O had numerous Blue and Gray cars. The NYC began to have two tone Gray as of 1938 with the coming of the lightweights.B&O was indeed very involved in POTUS trains and the B&O RR Historical Society has run several articles in their Sentinel magazine about same. |
