Hi

I am planning to by a Anglia + Rail Rover soon - I don't suppose that anyone knows if there is anywhere where they still stock purple rail rover stock?

(would be looking around the Anglia area or London / Slough / Windsor)

TIA

I did see a rover on purple stock some months back, but no idea where it was obtained.

Most of it is now on orange stock, although I do specifically make a point of printing my PRIV ALRs on blue season stock as it is much more durable.

Good luck, I remember having great difficulty finding purple stock for our Freedom of Scotland rover bash for Valentas in the Summer of 2008. And some guards then were surprised at seeing rover stock. (Some of the friendly EC guards actually got to know us and after a few days said "it's you again!" and didn't check our tickets as they'd seem them before, lol)

Thanks :smile:

I seem to remember that Norwich have a little box of ticket blanks sitting on the desk (various types) I know one of the supervisors down there may ask her exactly what is in them :) - that thought has just come to me
