City of Los Angeles, 16th Train, 1950Interior Color ChartsObservation Lounge - Sun ValleyPullman Standard delivered the two Observation-Lounge cars "Sun Valley" (assigned to City Of Los Angeles) and "Nob Hill" (assigned to City Of San Francisco) in 1937. The Pullman General Specification for lot 6524 is very light on the actual color description for these cars. The specification mostly refers to samples and very few references are given to actual colors, see the table below. All colors for this car were to be provided by Sherwin-Williams and the numbers should be the S-W numbers. This specification is for the "as delivered" version of the cars. The cars were later rebuilt and may have had other colors in 1950 when the Sun Valley was used in the 16th COLA train. Detailed ChartAs always, the colors that were used are not easy to determine anymore. What follows is a guess until (and if) I can locate authentic Sherwin-Williams color samples.
