jonny777 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Interesting pic here:- http://www.flickr.co...N05/2183058618/ and more so here:- http://www.flickr.co...N08/3269267006/ Have posted links rather than copies to keep t'right side of copyright. Apologies for being 3 years late, but I have only just discovered this fascinating thread. However, thankyou, thankyou for that second link which answers a 45 year question for me. I was sure that I had seen at least one class 114 dmu with the BR symbol reversed in my teenage days, but could never find any reference to it in my notes which made me doubt my own memories. There were certainly a few 114s in Lincolnshire with the bsyp livery. I have a poor b/w photo of one somewhere but no number visible. I do have some notes and will try and find them to see if I have any records of individual car numbers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xerces Fobe2 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) I found a that there are 2 variations of a Class 501 in Blue with SYP basically there 2 variations one where the warning panel comes up to just under the cab windows as in the photo on the first post of this thread and a smaller warning panel version (small than a green Class 501 with SYP) that is a similar size to a Class 116/7/8 SYP. http://www.flickr.com/photos/brianews/5734184585/in/set-72157626627200109/ This Class 501 is 501133 (051) on the Southern in Departmental use and it retained this livery until withdrawal. I have looked at these photos many a time but never noticed this subtle difference. XF Edited February 18, 2014 by Xerces Fobe2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 114 at leeds also appears to have a non standard roof colour, it looks like a very light grey not too dissimilar to what a roof paint goes when it has been on a while.

Sadly, my notes from 1967/8 do not show the yellow panel status, just a few cars that were blue at that time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
