Original grey paint 1960s- c.1972 2. All-over cement covering, which was variously light or dark grey according to whether it was wet or dry weather - the damp soaking into the concrete "paint"!

Railer Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Just found a book last night (actually 3 editions of Locomotives and Rolling Stock) with the delivery batch production runs but I'm not sure the are 100% correct. 25050-69 built in 1964 25070-94, 100-104 built in 1965 25095-99, 105-119 built in 1967 25120-139 built in 1970 25140-199 built in 1972 (I don't understand what was going on with the production batches in 1965 and 67) Looking at the above and the fact wagon 187 was in grey by photo evidence it pores water on the theory that any bubbles were actually in orange as delivered.

jhb171achill Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) I’d be fairly sure anything delivered in 1972 was orange new.....? However - one thing is certain. IF the last ones were grey as new, it didn’t last long! Edited October 23, 2019 by jhb171achill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wifes car Insurance bill moments after...my short lived joy was sucked back out again.

Cheers! Fran Yummie. These are my favourite livery for the Bubbles and nicely overlap my era. Exquisite and atmospheric wagons. They will be quite at home passing through Gort, as will loose coupled vans and open wagons. Postman recently delivered.
