The old 'Fasticket' machine that used to be at Huddersfield had an NSE logo on the front, as did most of the PERTIS machines on the Airedale/Wharfedale lines.

It's because the NSE colour scheme is built into the fixtures and fittings, such as the tiling colours, floor tiles and enamelled metal fascia panels etc

Would it cost a lot to stick vinyls over the enamel signs, or is that not allowed because of fire regulations?

I appreciate the tiling is different, but then TfL seem to have left the NSE tiling on the Drain platforms at Waterloo.

The closed signal box at Hither Green has an old NSE style sign on the Grove Park end. Marylebone station still has the NSE flash between Marylebone and Station on the front of the building.

Still NSE branded clocks at London Bridge where the renovation hasn't touched the platforms and the slowly diminishing cross-platform footbridge.

Between the parallel lines
Several stations in the Brighton Mainline area still have signs outside with small NSE motifs visible on them, including Redhill (on a pole outside the main entrance).

In fact, Redhill's sign will probably soon disappear during the refurbishment works. As it's fairly faded, I can't imagine anyone is likely to want to keep it.

I'd be thinking along the same lines, but have no firm evidence really. It does seem to be the case on LU that they don't use vinyl generally, so it's likely if there are rules they'll be read across to the stations in question...

I noticed this morning when I was coming into Victoria station the clock on the platform still had the Network South East branding at the bottom. The clock was still in full working order.

Does Harrow On The Hill still have some NSE branding....? I seem to think I might have seen some of said branding when I did the Steam on the Met trip from HOTH to Uxbridge last December..... or did I imagine it?

I've never noticed any on the platforms, it's all LUL at that level. I've not been upstairs at that station.

Above the booking office windows at Marylebone there is an old Vultron LCD display that still has the Thames & Chiltern Branding, and I know its not at a station but there is an NSE branded Varitext clock in the HST cleaning shed at Old Oak Common.
