Union Pacific's 'Los Angeles Limited' in Rainbow Canyon, Nevada, early 20th century


A differently colorized version of the same original in an earlier post.  The red for the cars is sure to be wrong, and should be UP yellow -- see the video below.

Well you are partially right about Red being the wrong colour.

However the UP Harriman Standard from 1903 was Dark Olive Green.
The Armour Yellow/Leaf Brown was first used on the M-10000 in 1934.
The Armour Yellow/Harbor Mist Grey came about on the COSF COLA Streamliners in 1940.
