N&W Passenger Cars in Armour Yellow Paint

[NW Mailing List]

Russ,

With all due respect to Richard Shell, I have not seen a photo of 1612 in
yellow; I have several photos/slides of 1612 with the blue letter board and
N&W stenciling; here is one from the archives of 1612:

Here is the 1613 in Armour Yellow:

And here is the 1836:

I could not locate any other photos of former Wabash diners, sleepers or
coaches in the Armour Yellow scheme with N&W stenciling.

I would love to see any additional photographs/slides of former Wabash
passenger equipment in the Armour Yellow scheme with N&W stenciling.
