Some of the different colors of my CD 230 Hemingray and Lowex carnival and amber collection. Missing a few like the citrine, whiskey, and blackglass ambers.

Starting from the left 1 - Carnival [090] 2 - Yellow [070] Unlisted for this color 3 - Yellow Amber [070], This was picked off the abandoned 440 volt circuit lines along the old Erie in downtown Huntington, IN in 1980, right after the railroad became abandoned. 4 - Honey Amber [090], Three of these were picked off the abandoned 440 volt circuit lines at the same general area as the yellow amber one. 5 - Dark Orange Amber [090] 6 - Red Amber [090], I would call this dark red amber. This was picked off the abandoned 440 volt circuit lines at the same general area as the yellow amber and honey ambers. 7 - Lowex Dark Olive Amber [010], Nearly a hundred of these were picked off the abandoned 440 volt circuit lines along the same railroad above between Decatur and Rochester, IN, with the highest concentration around Bippus in 1980, right after the railroad became abandoned.
