I was told that the original interior paint scheme for the R-29s was to have been that orange and blue which was also used on R-9 1741. There was also an R-12 or 14 (I'm not sure which) that was also painted orange and blue. The R-29s through mainline 33s and 36s were painted in a different 2 tone blue scheme and the WF R-33s and 36s along with the 32s through 42s had an even different scheme. I sometimes wonder why a variation of orange and blue similar to the 1939 WF paint scheme as used on the BMT Q cars wasn't used as an exterior scheme for the IRT WF 33/36s.
