Livery suggestions? What do I do with all these 2x4 dark orange slope

[ritzcrackerman]

I acquired some lovely dark orange 6071236: Brick W. Bow 2X4 in a recent LUG draft -

Altogether, they would make a lovely carriage roof for my Daylight to haul.

Any suggestions on a real-life livery that would incorporate a dark orange roof (?). This GWR coach styling would look nice with dark brown, tan or white windows, and the dark orange roof:

I appreciate any suggestions or reference photos.

I neglected to mention, I also got a fair number of the inverse 1x4 bricks with bows in dark orange as well - which I could use on the bottom. Just need some nice colors inbetween.

There is a BNSF tanker car, Florida East Coast Railway and the Illinois Traction company. I am not 100% sure the Dark Orange will work for the FEC, as that is closer to Red. Good luck!

Great Northern. Milwaukee Road? Canadian wheat hopper?

The Illinois traction company example is perfect. Dark orange on bright orange? Looks to be worth an attempt. Thank you.

I had been thinking passenger, but this hopper example is great. Thank you!
