Red oxide or boxcar red for overall walls, chocolate brown for trim and doors,
the best match for the window trim is TH&B cream, any stucco in tudor style
stations, antique white.

Subject: [cpsig] No. 4 Station Paint Scheme
Hey guys,
I was just wondering if anyone knew the paint scheme generally used on No. 4
stations (trim, etc). I was looking at photos of other types of western
stations that still exist, and it looks like tuscan with some kind of light
yellow/white trim. However, I'm not sure if this applies to Hope station --
looking at black and white photos of it, it looks like the trim is at least the
same shade as the siding, leading me to wonder if the entire thing was painted
in one colour. I wonder if, this being the KVR, there was some deviation from
'standard' CPR colours?
I was told the basic colour was tuscan, but trim etc eludes me.
Much appreciated!
Brad
