Memorial Liveries

[Jturner98]

Hi all,

Trying to find all the trains with remembrance and poppy liveries. So far all I can think of is 91110 and 91111? Is there any others?

GWR 43172 used to be in remembrance livery.

455 869 used to have one of these liveries.

Prior to that, 455 864 carried one as well - but I don't think both were thus liveried simultaneously at any point.

No, I think the first one was replaced by the second. SWR had a link with the British Legion Poppy factory in Richmond.

The first unit lost its special livery when it was refurbished. It had a single huge poppy covering each door. My wife burst into giggles the first time she saw the doors open on that unit - to her image was more evocative of gynacalogy than remembrance.

There was a Class 185 a couple of years ago with vinyls - I think I’m right in saying that at least some of the individuals commemorated were those also remembered in the names of a couple of the LMS Patriot class.

GWR have one on the 80x, but it will need someone with more knowledge to say which one. It always strikes me as a fine example.

TfW Mk4 DVT 82200 (set HD05) has a blue remembrance livery.

Having gone through my old Combined Volumes, 455 864 had it first.
