Yes they had green coaches. I have a photo from the William Reed Collection that we used in the RGS show. It shows an excursion train with 2-3 coaches and a steam engine on the other end(Cannot tell which one). Its a rear shot of an open platform car with a drumhead(Maybe RMRRC), and a goose on the near siding going towards the camera. The coach has Rio Grande Southern Lettering. It looks like the one ahead of it is Green as well. Maybe William can post that shot.
