I think it would be safe to say that this is the pre 1900 "Pullman Color". Other railroad matched their equipment to mimicked Pullman traits like lighter brown trucks and platforms, natural wood stained or red window sashes, drab roof, yellow, not gold lettering, black belt rails and letter boards. Shown is a Lehigh Valley coach paint guide that mimicked Pullmans of the time.
