Peppercorn A1 livery as built

Post by Barry Wilson »

Hello everybody.
I am a Trustee of The A1 Steam Locomotive Trust and we would appreciate some help with the livery adpoted inside the cab and tender front when the majority A1's were first turned out in LNER apple green livery with British Railways, in full, on the tender .
We have received several variants of the internal painting scheme and we would welcome information from anyone whose has the precise details of the colour scheme used.
Livery is an immotive subject so we would like to get it right to avoid the furore if we don't!
Any help would be much appreciated.

I can not confirm this as this is a guess at best, but would it not be Green or black? with the seat backs green?
