GSWR lining

[David Holman]

My 101 is nearing the paint shop stage and livery for the early 1900s is stated as " black, with vermilion lining, edged in white".

 So, my question is, does that mean a white line either side of the red one, or just one side? And if so, which side - top or bottom?

 It is very hard to tell from contemporary  monochrome photos. Also, can I get away with a wider white line that has a red line down the middle, or were there spaces between the white and red?

 7 mm scale remember, so such things are potentially more noticeable.

Hi David

JHB would be the man for this question but I believe he is away holidaying at the moment! Hang in there.......

Thanks both of you, though even enlarged, things are still not clear. Hopefully JHB can enlighten me when he gets back!
