I found another photo but couldn't find the colors looks like a soft white and a red with black. The red looks a little weathered from the sun. but don't know much on this road name!

Paolo,
If you want to do a custom paint job, a good place to start is the railroad's historical site, in this case: www.burlingtonroute.com.

The red is known as (CB&Q) Chinese Red. The "grey" would be Harbor Mist Grey or Imitation Aluminum for Freight Locos and polished Aluminum or Silver for the passenger units.
