If you include variations, 215 with the new logos.

 

I think I can add though - Revised Original Enterprise (as carried by 207 and 233 - full yellow end)

 

Photos of the aboce liveries if you can't visualise them:

 

1. Original orange / black / yellow (https://www.flickr.com/photos/hurricanemk1c/9566138552/in/set-72157650122569965)

2. Later version with larger yellow patch ( 203 at Portlaoise, 11/4/08)

3. Original "Enterprise" ( 206 approaches Connolly, 17/5/14)

4. NIR variation on above (Not quite sure about this one)

5. Second (current) "Enterprise" ()

6. New "Enterprise" silver and black ( 8209 departs Connolly, 13/12/14)

7. Green and grey "Intercity" ( 220 at Hazelhatch, 15/1/15)

8. NIR all-blue ( NIR GM 201 class 208 Drogheda April 1997) (not my photo)

9. Revised Original Enterprise ( 233 at Connolly, 7/11/14)

 

071's have had:

Supertrain

Supertrain with white stripe

Freight Silver/Black

Slate Grey

 

I hope the livery isn't all over maroon - just looks too drab

Any chance of 230 coming back for this? Didn't look great the day it was hauled back from York Road after the fire investigation. 225 was in a bad way after the level crossing accident, I think work started on it and was then stopped.

 

It would make sense for them to get two 201s for places where there are no run around facilities and not have to rely on IE to provide a loco for shunt releases and the like.
