Any indication of color Ed?  Not that I'm going to change my model.

I was in the paint book yesterday looking for something else and happened
upon some interesting information...four 3600s were painted in late 1926 and
one in August 1927.  So at least they looked nice when they were burned.

Nine of them were scrapped in 1928, one in 1927, eight in 1926 and two in
1925.  The 3750s ostensibly replaced them until the passengers howled about
the ride quality.  Then the company bought the 3800s and put the 3750s onto
city routes.
