Hi Simon,
The DVT appeared at the time of the change in Intercity livery from the use of executive grey to falcon grey so both these liveries and executive livery would all be seen the Eu-Brum - Wols services was the first to go over to DVT operation.
Regarding DVT's and B/G only test / training trains would give this combination.

Why Have Heljan chosen a non standard version the data position is correct for 034 but this unique, and was mw fitted, the number seems to be slightly low and sandbox filler slightly high

Not so see link https://www.flickr.com/photos/blue-diesels/7620732316/in/album-72157604142594351/ not all the remaining non executive liveried Mk 3 RFB had the yellow band applied as this was done over one weekend at depot level due to the introduction of the weekend first supplement.
This was the case for many years the present fuel point is no longer under the wires.

NLR - Euston / Watford conversion date was March 1977, I seem to recall.
Yes still the same today, pre September 2017 * Piccadilly Line Trains can also Reverse in the West bound platform mostly used for ECS back to South Harrow Sidings.
* Rayners Lane Junction was relaid on concrete sleeper's I have not checked if the formation was like for like.
Willesden High Level, was certainly 3rd rail only by 1981
The silver white refers to the colour of the ‘1’ between the droplight and the toilet window.
Oxford rail seem to have muddle up the swallow white as per DVT’s part locomotives and HST power cars, with Executive light Grey!
