Hello All,

l'm looking for some help if possible, I have the front panel off a class 86 electric loco (the one that covered over were the headcode originally was) that I am in the process of restoring, does anybody know were I can obtain some yellow paint of the original spec or a suitable alternative.

Kind regards,

We buy our loco paint from Williamsons:

I've been told they're pretty helpful if you contact them on pres topics.
You may need to do some further research on which paint spec (Spec 71 or Spec 83 I think for yellow ends). Also BR yellow needs to be applied over white undercoat or it doesn't look right.
