Aha, thanks! Tracking that down was more energy than I wanted to spend with my health the mess it is.
Something which just popped in to memory and could be answered by a book in the other room is that I want to remember that the Louisville & Nashville, L&N, had a train they ran in cooperation with PRR and it at least sometimes used a streamlined steamer painted tuscan red & that there were some L&N lettered passenger cars in tuscan.
Think it went from maybe Chicago to the Gulf coast?
Okay, this I'm going to use up the energy to go look for.
