Eastern Counties paint colour

Can anyone help me with the correct colour for Eastern Counties (ECOC) coaches in the early 60s (Tilling) era?

Bus colours were 'Tilling Red', with 'Tilling Cream' (as defined by Cherry Paints) used for the bodyside bands, and coaches were (sort of) a reversed livery. Except that the red became Maroon, mudguards changed from black to maroon (was this 100% though?), and the cream was....?

I have 2 EFE LS class coaches (EFE call them Bristol MW), the 1st one started off as a Bristol Omnibus coach, with changes made by me. Main livery is off-white. The 2nd one is a genuine EFE Eastern Counties version, with a distinct cream colour, slighty darker than 'Tilling Cream' by Cherry.

 

So what cream should I be using for the coaches?
