CBQ Coach Question

Greetings,

I’m not having any luck up on Classic Trains so I’ll try here.

The Con Cor coach in N scale is a CB&Q. What is the proper color for the seats and floor of the CB&Q coach?

Thank you,

Bob Lipka

Gallery coach or Budd coach?

Greetings,

Budd coach, Silver Tree series. Formerly a 16 section sleeper.

Thank you for your help,

Not sure how accurate for three reasons. One, I’m slightly color blind so greens and browns and such sometimes get confused! The tape I was looking at wasn’t the greatest quality. And the 16 section sleepers were converted well after that film was shot.

Looks like seats were a medium brown (almost had a greenish tinge to it, see I told you!) with dark green carpet. The carpet had a pattern but it would be difficult to describe.

Redgrey,

Thank you for your answer. As it is the only one I have gotten I am extremely grateful.

Thank you very much for your effort,

Bob Lipka

Bob, keep checking in the next few days. I will ask on another forum specific to CB&Q and see what we can find out. Trouble is there are few color photos inside the cars.

Rick

Redgrey,

Thank you again. I look forward to hearing more.
