RPO model collors

Good morning, all:

Please let me know what Floquil or other brand of
paint are the correct colors for Class Me and Class M1
Railway Post Office equipment in the 1930s.  I believe
it should be flat black for the roof, black for the
trucks and under-body fixtures, and tuscan for the car
sides.  The modeling color name and stock numbers will
be helpful.

Also, are there appropriate decals or dry transfers in
HO or O for N&W Railway Post Office models?

You may reply off-list if desired. 

Thanks!
