Maroon - D&RG
Pullman Green - D&RG, D&RGW
Oxide Red (coaches moved from passenger to 'drover's service) - D&RGW ca. 1930s
Aspen gold - D&RGW
Oxide Red - C&TS
Green - C&TS
Maroon - C&TS

Don't know about actual use of oxide red coaches on trains on the Alamosa - Durango line, but photos and movies show a CCC special (a revenue run) on the RGS with both green and oxide red coaches in the consist.
