Locked Southern Passenger Car Lighting

What types of lights were used in Southern Heavyweights and in Southern Streamlined cars?  More specifically, what would be an appropriate light color/temperature for each of these?

Thanks,

Warm white is what I remember and what I've been told at TVRM where they restore them.

Lightweights fluorescent; heavyweights incandescent; modernized heavyweights (like SOU 1037 at TVRM) fluorescent.
