Hi All,

 Would anyone know what colour the CIE narrow gauge carriages were by 1950s? 

I thinking from looking about the net, its white or cream uppers and brown lower (see below-thanks to Ernies site).

But the floors and colour of the upholstery I'm not sure of.  I have seen reference to GSR 'second-class' cloth for seating post 1925, what colour would it of been?

 

The C&L original carriages seem all over dark down/brown with white roofs.

Rebuilt C&L 1L, light scumble? interior with white roof?   Any idea of the cushion seat cover colour and floors?

Rebuilt bus body 7L, more difficult to determine, maybe cream interior? wood coloured window frames? Bus seats colour unknown, by with silver trim.

Ex T&D via WCR, brown lower and cream tops, similar to the recovered10T below? image.jpeg.4c1830ff8033ddcb9138dbb55b0b8a60.jpeg

10T as recovered with cream? topped, brown lower and white roof.The interior has recently been cleaned out, note the condition of the carriage it looks stunning. The interior retains the original livery as found.

 

 

 

Any advise or info on this much apricated.

 Thanks
