Tuscan Red Paint Color

Tuscan Red is a distinctive paint color with a rich heritage in transportation and industrial design. This bold, warm red brings character and sophistication to interior spaces with its deep, earthy undertones.

Color Heritage in Transportation

Tuscan red is a shade of red used for some railway carriages, especially for passenger cars. The color is most closely associated with the Pennsylvania Railroad, which used it on passenger cars and its TrucTrain flatcars. It was also used extensively by the New South Wales Government Railways in Australia, as well as the PRR. Norfolk and Western Railway used it as an accent color on their J class steam locomotives. Canadian Pacific Railway used it historically and painted their Luxury Revival cars that colour. It is also a Prismacolor colored pencil.

This transportation heritage makes Tuscan Red paint color perfect for creating interiors with a sense of history, craftsmanship, and enduring style.
