Hey Mark,, Here is the F&C kit that I built a few years ago. In the instructions of that kit was a section on painting it with a few prototype pics. My kit also contained the proper decals, I don't know if they are still sold that way. Depending on the year you are modeling these cars were oxide red, light gray, and I think even black. Up until the mid 50's , not sure of the exact date ,they were painted red. After that they wore a light gray similar to the same gray that the D&H used. I do remember seeing a pic of one in black with a PC logo on it's side.
