A Golden 483?

June 08, 2013 08:39AM
I was thumbing through an old TRAINS Magazine September 1961, and found this article. Does anyone have a photo of what she looked like?

"In November of 1956 the 483 was dressed up with some Orange-Yellow paint and became the "star" of TV and still photographs advertising Rheingold beer; one of the veiw was printed in color in national magazine. The 483 was repainted black a short time later."


Still a Student,

P.S. I wonder how good a 480 class engine would look in Aspen Gold, and would it work in with the new paint on the Cumbres and Toltec's Passenger cars. Or is there a rule in place that the C&TS cannot use that paint scheme because the Durango and Silverton have used it in the past?
