Each Babylon station is colored a different color. We know:

  • Babylon 1 is red, as seen in In The Beginning.
  • Babylon 4 is green, as seen in Babylon Squared and War Without End (and possibly others)
  • Babylon 5 is blue, as seen in... let me think...

What colors are Babylon 2 and 3?

  • 3
    We never saw either of them, I don't if JMS ever commented on it, but based on the order of colors for the ones we saw, I've seen several sites guess that Babylon 2 would have been orange and Babylon 3 yellow. Commented Jun 25, 2021 at 0:27

    Do we even know if Babylons 2 and 3 got far enough along in the construction process to have had their exterior cladding applied before they were destroyed?

Obviously the first Babylon station was far enough along to be red. Also I doubt that 1 - 3 were as close to Babylon 4 as JMS implies. But submitted as an example of the only canon thing I could find on the topic. Some fan did some cool fan fiction stations once but I couldn't find those either.

"What were the designs for Babylon 1-3. Were they based on the Babylon 4 model or the Babylon 5 model? "

They were designed to eventually become what we saw in B4. None of the first 3 got much past the early stages of construction.
