Interlocking levers

So I am putting together a set of Armstrong Levers for an interlocking tower.  The question is what color to make them? If it matters I model the C&O in 1943.

 The colors vary by what they control.

Dear Doug,

Could be a bum-steer, could be useful,

What did you search under?  I spent over half an hour and got nowhere.  My Google-Fu must be out of practice.
