FiveFootThree Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Hi folks. Could anyone provide me with the code for the original blue as used on the NIR 111 class when delivered? I understand it was lighter than the current livery. Also, the ends were red? Was this just painted, or a reflective sticker? Thanks. FFT.

Railer Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 The end sticker was sort of red dayglow orange like what IE used on the 141/071s in the late 90s. I find the 80s NIR blue used on the Murphy Model 111 a tad too bright compared to my memory of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dhu Varren Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 The original light blue is very close to Ford Electric Monza Blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhb171achill Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 It was indeed lighter - a good bit lighter. The end bits were dayglow rather than yellow, and buffer beams were black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
