I hate to say it like this, but if it's a color that no one else is likely to
wear, or that is a bit more eye-catching, it's more readily identifiable by
several magnitudes. Yet I'm not saying that we dress up like "Hot Dog On A
Stick" employees though either. My wife suggests red.. eye-catching and easily
obtained. And it's like the red field from the Lego logo.

Pins would be nice, but not so good for instant, long-range, all-the-way-
across-the-layout identification.

I would be interested.

IMO, hats would be good idea but only for outside events, or else we look
excessively train-geeky, esp. if they're train hats.
