Omaha Orange

Some local administrations give a particular name to the hue. Omaha in Nebraska, for example, lends its name to a paint used on cars and trucks, such as International Harvester, Schneider National and Allied Van Lines. The colour coordinates are the same as Safety Orange; only the name is different.

It was an Omaha, Nebraska delivery and storage company that coined the name 'Omaha Orange'
