Sorry for the late reply, thanks to everyone who has given information. All very useful! 

I may very well be getting confused with the rail stores vans in black and white pictures. They look more like what I was thinking of. 

Also those peco/Dapol efforts muddy the waters of reality somewhat! 

Hello All, 

While browsing the forums I'm sure I have seen a picture of a planked 12t van in railfreight red and grey at a platform/in a bay.  

Was I having a slight hallucination?  Or was railfreight livery applied to any non air braked vans? Or could this be a standard van that was upgraded to air brake? 

I have also raked Paul bartlett's site and can't see anything like it there.  Can anyone put me out of my misery?
