The actual paint specification folios which are keyed with the Baldwin order forms are at the Stanford University Special collections library. The folios show the general design, color, component etc of the locomotive and tender. However, I should note, these are not to scale. I suppose the craftsmen made up their own patterns from these folios to fit the various components. However, the Baldwin folios are very instructive as to the general designs used and colors.
