GWR A30 Autocoach

Could anybody help me with the colours used for the interior of the A30 autocoaches. Panelling (internal) is said to be 'cream plastic', presumably formica/weyrock, seat ends etc looks to be varnished timber, but I can't find any info on the upholstery colours used. I've seen photos of a striped fabric and also a photo which looks to be leatherette. Both photos are in b&w. No info on material/colour of the floor, brown lino?

 

Anybody able to help?

 

Cheers

You're getting your Diagrams mixed up...

 

A.30 of 1933 - Nos. 187-196. Interiors a mixture of varnished Oak & 'grained' Pine T&G.

A.38 of 1951 - Nos. 220-234. Interiors mostly Holoplast/Formica apart from Cab, Vestibule & Luggage which were grained T&G.

 

Upholstery varied depending on era & whether Smoking or Non-Smoking.
