Hi all I’m putting together a LMS breakdown train but am struggling to find any information on liveries for the individual vehicles, below is the formation with my guesses at livery in italics: Brake van - LMS grey Crane (inc. runner and relieving bogies) - black, red buffer beams, white head of jib Water tank for crane - LMS grey lettered “water” 3 plank open - Bauxite? Conflat - LMS grey Packing/tool van - Bauxite Riding coach- absolutely no idea! Bauxite? Black? i can find loads of info for BR days but none for the pre-nationalisation era 🙈 Thanks for any help!

Going back to the kit topic , I occasionally look for 7mm loco kits that have been abandoned and have , in the past , got some superb bargains. For example last year I picked up a LNWR precursor tank which just required painting and brake gear doing for a shade over £100. Took me 4 hours to get it into traffic. One strange thing that I've noticed is when a 7mm loco is advertised,invariably it is complete but never with any brake gear! I've never been able to fathom this!

Except,of course,when they're bidding on one of my auctions *fume* Maybe I'm too honest in my descriptions...
