At the end of the Colour part of the film there are Two B1's pulling the LMS Royal train and then EM in Apple Green with a set of two Coronation Coaches without valances and Coronation lettering but still in pre war livery and some excellent Teak stock as well.

It's the up sleeper. This included a Coronation twin brake third kitchen which was used for service of supper. The stock re-entered service in 1948 and was painted in the pre-war liveries without train branding as the new BR liveries had not then been decided on.
