Loc Boxes in North Wales

[gedj2]

Afternoon all,

an odd question if I may, yesterday (Sun 24th Apr) I went to Anglesy, going through North Wales and towards Holyhead I notice that the lineside loc boxes were the usual standard grey apart from the tops which were painted white, can anybody shed any light on why this would be?

Kind regards

Presumably to aid in heat reflection?

hmm, possibly, but why only the locs in North Wales?

Perhaps all the seagulls 'painted' them?

ha ha, like your thinking on that, not entirely convinced though !!!
