Thanks for the inputs, but I am looking for a REA company car, not a Pennsy REA, Seaboard REA, or any other RR specific REA car. If it has a railroad name on it, it is not what I am looking for.
Also, American Railway Express was sold the REA in 1929, so that scheme was long gone by the early 30s.
As I posted earlier, REA painted their company cars in this basic scheme from 1929 to 1953, when they added the red diamond.
There were two significant variations of this scheme. The picture above was on wood cars from about 1945 until 1953. From 1929 to 1945, the lettering "Express Refrigeration" was more centered on the car, instead of being lower on the car as in the picture.
Again, the red diamond did not appear until 1953 so it is well past my layout's era. No red diamonds on my layout.
The paint scheme I am looking for is found on a lot of N and HO cars, but not O.
