Does anyone have the shopping and modification sequence for the Pullman 
Standard coaches constructed in 1938 for the Californian?
 
It is known that these cars were delivered in a dark (coach green with pin 
stripes) paint scheme with gold lettering.  Later, they were painted silver with 
black lettering and assigned to various Rocket consists.  Still later (1947 
?), fluting was applied below the windows.  At some point during this process 
the cars also received names.
 
Specifically, it would be helpful to know the time that the cars were 
repainted silver, as well as the time that the cars received names.  Did the receive 
names when first painted silver, or when the fluting was applied in 1947?
 
Thanks.
