sej Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I have found some b/w photos showing a couple of what I think are 14 ton fuel tankers at Hemyock. One is anchor mounted, in "Regent" livery. It appears to be painted black but I have no idea of the colouring of the lettering. It may be white? Does anybody have any idea of what the Regent livery colours may have been and are there any transfers in 7mm around? Cheers Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall5 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 The Regent 'house colours' were red, white and blue. I'm not sure what period you are modelling but IIRC the Airfix B class model was black and had a red, white and blue roundel with "Regent" written across it on the right hand end of the tank. Ray.

IIRC the contemporary class B livery for this tank was black with white lettering, but it is long time ago. Later it could have had the coloured logo applied?

Paul The class Bs were black with white lettering. I believe the silver tanks had the REGENT in red. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium DIW Posted February 19, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 19, 2016 I remember that the Regent logo in the early sixties was the red white and blue roundel as seen on the Dapol wagon - I had a kite with the logo, before I was old enough to walk! Funny how some odd things stick in the mind. Does that help at all? [/Ramble mode off] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
