Hi,
I’m trying to find the liveries of the 150s that work on the Northern network. My main aim is to find what livery was carried during the Arriva Trains Northern days. Can anyone help?

(Mods if this is in the wrong place, feel free to move)

The 150/2s operated by Arriva Trains Northern carried Regional Railways livery.

The 150s operated by First North Western carried North Western blue/gold star, GMPTE grey or MerseyTravel yellow in the case of a handful of 150/2s.

Of course the North Western 'gold star' livery fully superceded the Regional Railways GMPTE and Merseyrail liveries on the FNW 150s: They all received it when they were refurbished with Chapman seating circa 2000.

On more than one occasion I heard youngsters refer to it as "Star Wars" livery!

That goes into my "wilderness years" so I lost track of it a bit after 2001/2002.
