On the houseflagchart of "De Blauwe Wimpel", Apr 1956 is the houseflag
of N.V Maatschappij Zeetransport "Oranjelijn", Rotterdam: Red with a Blue
diamond, charged with white intertwined capitals "VA".
This company seems to be a merger of Oranjelijn and Zeetransport (whose
flag, as used in the 1940's was nearly identical, but with a larger capital
"A")
Possibly the orange color was found in the combination of a red houseflag
and a yellow funnel...
