I like the way 484 looks in the first image. It has enough soot and dirt on the smokebox to take-away some of the "New" look, yet you can still make out the lighter color on the smokebox which sets it off a bit.
I like the way the Grande had them in 1968. They obviously felt the smokebox should stand out a bit.
Note the cylinder covers steps, etc are yet a different color, a bit brighter than perhaps the smokebox and stack.
