John, I have been accused of being a SPF by a few people. I can't actually answer as to WHY there were different colors. But The Brunswick Green (correct term is Dark Green Locomotive Enamel or DGLE) was an early scheme. The E7 were DGLE when delivered. The E8 were DGLE for a short time then were painted Tuscan. The same goes for the gold stripes vs. Dulux. It was just part on an evolution...
