this is relating to the dapol kit I bought a while back, I haven't begun construction yet, nor will I for another few months, however I would like to go as far as my skills will allow in detailing the interior, turn the inside into a little diorama perhaps.
During my time with a Preservation society I've been in a BR standard brake van a few times so if the general internal layout in a Toad-D is the same then I shouldn't have too much trouble in that regard, however, I'm unsure what colour the LNER painted the interior of their standard brake vans, so if any of you have any information about the interior colours, even if it's just telling me what equivalent modeling paint to use, it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: information required on LNER brake van interiors
I believe that the interior was painted the same light stone as the passenger brake vans, with the hearth, backplates and stove, and brake standard and other items of hardware black.
