Look on page 44 of Beeb & Cleggs book "Narrow Gauge in the Rockies" and you will see a floor plan of the D&RG Parlor Cars. In the lower left corner there is a note about color. Black Roof and Underframes, Tuscan Red sides and ends until Sept. 6, 1918 when they went to Pullman Green.
I believe that Caboose 0579 is Tuscan Red and Blck but with white lettering which, I assume, was standard for freight cars and cabooses.
