I found all three yesterday, I just didn't get to post them yesterday like I said I would. Sorry guys! I know everyone's excited.
Here are my findings for the TRAIN STATION COLOR and TOWN HALL COLOR:
I realized why I couldn't find the train station and town hall color as matching pairs when comparing same color buildings from diff towns... look at my results:
0x5C738 – TOWN HALL COLOR
C2 = green
A6 = green
EA = green
76 = green
0F = blue
EF = blue
F9 = brown
0x5C739 – TRAIN STATION COLOR
AB = brown
EF = brown
F8 = red
90 = red
96 = blue
92 = blue
B9 = green
nor do they seem to have any specific corresponding pattern (such as anything A0-A9 being brown and anything from 90-99 being blue, for instance)... but I've confirmed that picking any of the values for a specific color, WILL give you that specific color. so using either C2 or A6 for your town hall will give you a green town hall in both scenarios. I don't get it (yet).
I've been dumping a large amount of towns as you can see, seven alone up there to get those results. It would be nice if there was just ONE value per color (I was hoping it would be a simple 00 / 01 / 02 / 03 (or 01-04) case to denote the colors of the station and hall), but that doesn't seem to be the case.
That said, I'm wondering if there's somewhere else in the code that is ultimately calculating these values (such as the way the town tree is calculated by hours and days) and THAT is what is determining the randomness of the values...
All I know is, my brain gave up on me, so I'm sitting here staring at the values going WHAT IS THE COMMON THEME WITH YOU TELL ME YOUR SECRETSIs this the right location, because I don't see those values on mine...?

Hi. I actually tested this a few days ago. I visited my friend's town and took her town from there. Then (with her permission) injected it. When I tried to update the Dream Address it told me that another customer had already updated it and created a whole new address for it (meaning that it didn't override her Dream Town.) The reason why I did this with her Dream Address and not one of mine was because I wanted to see what would happen if I tried to update it from a different IP address. I asked her to try to update her town to see if it would update from the same Address as before or if me having updated her town would mess that up and create yet ANOTHER Address for her town. But she doesn't really play her game anymore so she hasn't gotten around to doing that. I'd love it if someone could help me test this second part.
I know that you said private messages. But posting it publicly so people know they got nothing to worry about. No one can override your dream town.
Alright that works 
If anyone wants to share their Dream Address for testing let me know! Or if you don't feel comfortable sharing/don't have a Dream Address yet, but would like to help I can also give my Dream Address for testing!

Asked another friend for his Dream Address (which had been updated yesterday.) This is what happened:
- I injected his Dream Town making it my own: everything went smoothly. I cut down a bunch of his trees
- I tried to update his Dream Town: I was given a new Dream Code (which means his Dream Town wasn't overwritten with the one I ruined)
- I switched back to my own town and visited his Dream Town (using his original Code, not the one I got when I took his town): his town looked just as it had just before I had destroyed it. No damage done
- I asked him to update his Dream Town: he was able to update no problem and was also able to keep his original Dream Code (which means that he gets to keep his visitor count and doesn't need to update people with his new DC or anything)
So it looks like Dream Towns can't be griefed! The downside is that if you search your town by name you'll find several versions of it on there. And of course the fact that someone can just go and steal your entire town if they wanted to

Yes, the offsets are CORRECT. It is the VALUES that seem to have no corresponding pattern as I mentioned earlier, as I found 3 or more values for same color train stations from different towns, for example. But the values in your game correspond to your current colors.
Please document what color 95 is for your town hall, and what color C7 is for your train station. This is important. Everyone will need to document their different hex values for their train station colors and town hall colors until we figure out what the pattern is / what is causing such a wide variance in hex values for the same colors.

Thanks so much for taking the time to test that, that information is vital. I really appreciate it and the community does as well.
That does suck about the DA duplicates being born -- I'm assuming Nintendo stores the DA information server-side so there's no hope of us deleting the duplicates we come across. Someone correct me if they know better.
The town ripping is still an issue, yes, and a big one. But at least now we know that people can't go around rampantly ruining other people's DA's real-time and updating them online.
Anyone willing to inject a custom photo ID into my save file?
I'm seriously stumped right now. I've been going at this for days, spending my free time trying to solve this, and I'm getting pissy that I can't get it right at all. It's only a picture of me.

I'm trying to get this my as town layout, but it keeps crashing at game startup. I suspected it had to do with the outer acres that the editor doesn't allow us to edit, so I manually edited them to what I thought was correct based on ram files of both a right and a left ocean town I have. That didn't work so I don't know why it's crashing. All the buildings were in a proper spot so maybe the game just doesn't accept a duo ocean? And yes, I know the ocean wouldn't flow in a single direction. I'm just experimenting for fun. The acres are at 0x4da04 if I'm not mistaken.
Thanks JJ! I was just coming to post those links. Appreciate it.
I'm pretty sure it's because the game MUST have a cliff face on one side, and the beach on the other. If you think about it, the game is programmed to have a mountain on one side of the game, which you happen to be driving through in a tunnel when you're talking to Rover on the train. The entire basis of the map and the game's layout relies on it, from the layout of Main Street to which direction your trains travel in.
I think there may be some luck editing waterfall location via the hex, and minor things like that that we're currently having glitches with on the ACNL Map Editor, but trying to do such massive edits as you are doing goes beyond what the game is fundamentally capable of. Maybe. I could be wrong.
Those are my best guesses, anyway.
Also, I just noticed you hadthree four beach ramps, which is ALWAYS a game breaker. You can only have two. Remove the extra ramps and see if you have better luck.

You're only allowed to have 2 ramps. If you have more than 2 your game will crash every time. In the picture you have 4. I don't know if you're allowed to have a river that flows in both directions, but that might also be part of the issue.
