60161 livery question

Post by 60800 »

Evening all,
a friend of mine was wondering if Peppercorn A1 no.60161 ever wore BR apple green. I haven't been able to find any photographic reference and don't have the relevant yeadons volume. Any help is greatly appreciated

None of the second batch of A1s (60153-60162) from Doncaster received Apple Green, instead going straight into BR Blue.
