the following website has color pictures of Mil. Road locomotives. Maybe that can help. I will also look for some colored bandit pics.

Sorry, can't help you with that one Ed, but I found this picture of an old Milwaukee Road Unit, with a "WC" painted on the side of the cab. This is now Wisconsin Central power and was seen outside WC's Shops Yard.
