Hello,

Can anyone please tell me when these specific stickers were first introduced into British Rail Carriages? I know they are currently used today.

Many thanks!
Amy

The style of all apart from the grey/yellow label on the bottom left (which is more modern) would have been introduced as part of BR's corporate image from the mid-60's.

The no smoking penalty fine (£50) is from later than the 70's, as the original circular labels would not have had a penalty fine listed.

Certainly until many of the carriages had gone through refurbishment from mid-late 60's through the 70's, the labels/transfers from earlier (e.g. red triangle no smoking and long blue 'FIRST') would be much more prevalent.

The green/yellow one at the bottom left with the warning triangle is from a SouthCentral slamdoor train so would be from around 2001-2005
