This was posted on a museum list I'm on and I thought someone here could help her out. I only know the color of the body is grey, and don't know about the Baltimore study. If anyone can help please contact her directly.

Is anyone aware of any studies on the original paint colors for the Merci Train boxcars? We are already aware of the study on the Baltimore boxcar. Please reply off-list. Thanks in advance for any information or leads.

Go to the Merci Train website (link below). If you can't see the answer there, you can e-amil Earl Bennett and I'm certain he can answer the question.
