Just seen on the south west railways and heritage Facebook page, coach 10594 has gained a new green livery. I don't know how to get a link from the iPad Facebook app, but I've attached a screen print.

I've been told the entire sleeper sets will be going this colour one coach at a time, with a September launch for the new colour in full. Vinyls still to be added to this one.
57605 is currently in the paintshop suggesting 57s are here for a while yet.

Some pictures I have found on Flickr.

10594; branding still to be added

57605, looks the wrong shade of green though. Looks more like 57604 green.

The very low key "Operated by First" looks a very similar concept to the Scot Rail rebranding which now does not change when the operator changes (except of course the bit that sys "operated by...).

It isn't particularly a First Group thing is it?

The ScotRail livery has a large St Andrews Cross that isn't either First Group or Abilleo is it.
