I'm happy to see more preserved coaches/units in the scheme, the old maroon and green colours get boring after a while. The GCR and ELR both seem to be building up B&G mk1 sets, the SVR are doing a 108 and some Hastings vehicles being turned out. Any others?

PTSO or platform depending on the weather
Given that the livery (when widespread) is well over 40 years old; perhaps it's not surprising. I believe express passenger rolling stock started receiving blue/grey livery from as early as the late 1960s; express multiple units from the 1970s and suburban multiple units from the 1980s
