[PRCo] Re: PRCo's Low-Floor Color Scheme

[tsquare]

Hey, Jim --- thanks for the very complete run-down on this 
question.  Apparently I missed thie original post.

As for the low 3700's and 3800's having cream trim between 
the belt rail and the letterboard:  My recollection is that
both series had gray trim until the early 40's when the 
cream paint began to appear on some cars and, as I further 
recall, not all of them everreceived the cream paint.  
Problem is, though, I can't prove any of this.

Tom
