Matt:
The D&RGW switched the colors for their MofW from Red (some like the ditchers were black) to gray in 1940. But like other things on the D&RGW they didn't rush out and redo them overnight. Rotary OY was still red in 1941 and probably did not get the gray until 1944 or so. Some never were painted gray and were red until they were scrapped (like Flanger OE). Do not have a date on #0459, it was probably during WWII.
