Maybe this should be in the Prototype section, but... in what sort of trains were horse boxes moved? If, for example, owners in Newmarket needed to get half a dozen horses to a racecourse elsewhere in the country, would the boxes be attached to passenger trains, freights trains, or either? Or sent separately?

Does anyone know for certain what livery Hornby are giving the first release of their BR Gresley suburbans? Maroon has been mentioned more often than crimson, but the only picture so far seems to show unlined crimson. I shall buy a rake whichever it is, but it would be nice to know.
