As much as some of us may like the cream or white Waycars, it seems to make sense they they were painted yellow. The 1006 was built as Waycar 73 and built after Union Pacific had taken over control of the South park. We have a resident UP fanatic in our group, who informs us that yellow with brown lettering was the UP colors of the time. So it seems to make sense if the South park Waycars were painted in that fashion; at least post 1881.
