BSGSV Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 When the carriages were newly repainted/refubished, the set would be all Galway livery, 5 standards, buffet, standard, gen van. As the Mk.2 air con ran down, the Galway carriges could turn up in ones or twos, mixed in with IE livery carriages. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
