Sumpter Valley had at least a couple of boxcars painted yellow. Some speculation has occurred that the yellow painted cars may have been assigned to supply service for the various logging camps. The reefer cars were also painted yellow. Color slides taken by Hank Griffiths at Baker after cessation of service show the ACF cars with a very faded yellow(almost white).
