Yeah, I remember that red on the R29/33's VERY well -- the yellow grab irons really stood out. The green R-21/22's looked good when brand new, as the bare metal at the bottom of the doors (the floor edge runners, or whatever they are called) stood out.
I remember when the R33/36 WF cars were delivered -- the car washers at Corona were not completely installed. Then winter came, so the cars actually did get VERY dirty, almost to the point where they were starting to look like their mainline brethren. The car washers started being used around March of 1964, and the cars somehow came clean again!!
