Passenger Cars
1878
Passenger cars painted the “‘Flint & Pere Marquette’ color,” a “peculiar drab and yellow, - lighter than most roads, except in this part of the country, are in the habit of using.” Car body ornamentation is distinct by having the “ornamentation in the center of the bottom” of the panels. A “handsome border” is painted below the panel-work.
