How about handing out a card with each ticket (or every tenth ticket) asking people's opinions of colors. Use some G scale cars on display in the depots. Maybe use a D&RGW green, D&RGW red, D&RGW yellow, Southern Green, B&O Royal Blue, etc.
Mom loves the Rio Grande Gold. She also like Strassburg's two tone even better (I think it is red and yellow).
As for low maintanence, I purchased my auto in a roan color. Georgia red clay does not show up too easily on it. By the same token, paint the Antonito train sand (good camo color) <img class=
