b*ggeredupclass03 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I have for some reason, purchased some C40 Presflo Kits from Dapol. I was wondering, now that they are nearing completion, what livery to paint them in. I model in the early 1980s. Were they still Running by then, and if so, in what livery?

Baby Deltic Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 They would have a bauxite body and black underframe. Presflo's were still running during that period, but, with the introduction of more modern bulk powder wagons, many found themselves being used for the transport of fly ash from power stations.

Have a look at this link to Paul Bartlett's site:- http://paulbartlett.zenfolio.com/brpresflo In 1979, they were still getting Heavy General Repairs and full repaints; they would have about another five years in service.
