WP&Y boxcar lettering timeframe?

When did the White Pass go to these markings for their boxcars?
I was wondering as I scored a couple of AMS boxcars in On30 custom-lettered in these markings and I can't find photos of too many of their boxcars other than modern times and from the 1800s.
I can't use them on my layout at all (as there's no way there'd be interchange between them and the ET&WNCX of course) but I was thinking of repainting one but keeping on in the WP&Y markings and was wondering when they started using this style of markings.
