ash39 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Hi all, Bit of a long shot, hoping some people have some late 90's coaching stock handbooks that they can flick through for me. Does anyone know which DVT's were the latest to wear Intercity livery? I'm modelling the late 90's and have one Virgin and one IC Swallow model, I want to number the IC one as one of the later ones to be more realistic. Best I can find so far is a great collection of images on Flickr from a guy called Tim Horn, showing 103/116/132/140/141 in IC livery in May 98 ( ) can anyone beat that for me? Any still going in 2000 would be great! I know a lot of 90's lasted that long. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Horn Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 That chap sounds familiar The best I can do with stuff I've scanned in already is September 1999 Earlier in the year in May If I get a chance today I'll thumb through the stuff yet to be scanned. Just had a quick look and came up with this one 82107 in Jan 2000 Cheers Tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Horn Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 82102 in May 1999 as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash39 Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 That's unbelievably helpful, thanks a lot! Never thought to look if you were on here haha. Think i'll go with 107, that takes me right up to the period when GNER converted the 91/0's into /1's, as I have two of them. As we're on the subject, do you know which 87's lasted longest in swallow? Should be easier as it seems virgin prioritized rolling stock over locomotives (i have an issue of model rail from may 2000 which indicates about half the class 90 fleet were still in swallow livery). The reason being I have a lovely detailed class 87 I got off eBay which is currently number/nameless. Wouldn't mind picking up another to do in virgin colours but that can wait for now!

ash39 Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Just realised why 102 looks different, roof is so dirty it appears black! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Horn Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Again, with stuff scanned in, on a sunny day at Ledburn Junction 27th June 2000 . . . (details in the file name, hover over the piccy with mouse ) 87's and a couple of 90's Cheers Tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
