Moderators Howard Smith Posted August 10, 2015 Moderators Share Posted August 10, 2015 Hello, I'm on a quest to detail some Mk 1s in Regional Railways livery, one of which, 4880, is seen below: The problem is finding photographs of the interiors to ensure I get the colours correct...can anyone help?

Pugsley Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 If you replicate something like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/78/British_Railways_Mark_1_RMB_1869_Interior.JPG You won't be too far wrong, IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Howard Smith Posted August 11, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted August 11, 2015 Thanks Martin, That's the sort of shot I need. Given that they were transferred from Network South East use and probably kept the interiors, rumour has it they were grey inside (i.e. refurbished?)... I just want to make sure I get it right. Problem is, plenty of people photographed the outsides of them, very few the insides, and books like Parkins on Mk 1s don't go as far as that.

Pugsley Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 No problem. That is a refurbished one - the grey panelling, strip lighting and revised luggage racks are the clues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Howard Smith Posted August 11, 2015 Author Moderators Share Posted August 11, 2015 OK, that's clarified then. I'm tempted to print some lino textures and wood paneling for the interiors rather than just paint them. Think it would be far more authentic than just painting.

I thought that the Mk 1 TSO's were originally the Intercity liveried examples. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
