DE Diner Paint

[NW Mailing List]

 The & was replaced by "and" shortly after WWII when R H Smith learned that the & is an abbreviation and not a word. As for the gold stripes, only the 1023 and 1024 ever had them, and that for only 3 years. They were applied when these two DE's were chosen to be the diners on the 1946 Powhatan Arrow. When the original consist was replaced in late 1949 by new cars, the stripes on the 1023 and 1024 were removed at their next shopping.Jim Nichols

 Hi, How do I search the old answers? From what I see I can only get a list of every thread ever, but no search? I'm probably missing a page or something?Thanks, David Baker

 Hi Society, 
I've looked at pictures and equipment data. I'm painting a diner, not a perfect match but good enough if it's got a good paint job and lettering.
Does anyone know the story about when the & changed to an "and?" Does anyone know when or if they are supposed to have the gold stripes?
Primer is cured and the Tuscan walls and brown for the roof are next!
Thanks for the help,David Baker
