My views on liveries appear to be the same as yours. I do not like the plain white/light grey based themes that appear on the likes of Greater Anglia. They don't look very professional to me and the slightest bit of dirt makes the train far less inviting. Liveries with a grey base can look very good when designed well; I'm very fond of London Midland and CrossCountry.Really? I think it looks appalling - I'm really not a fan of predominantly white or light grey liveries: Bland, uninspiring and a nightmare to keep clean.
From what you say, you will not like the Southern livery also.
Agreed, I wouldn't say that Southern was a particularly dull livery, I consider it rather colourful.Southern's okay: There's less of an unrelieved expanse of white and the livery also acknowledges the heritage of the Southern region in a fairly tasteful way. It's the likes of the Greater Anglia and new GTR schemes that I'm really not keen on, the latter of which that mock-up appears to be an approximation of.
