Now thats going to be a challenge to keep clean!

Anyone know what new colour the coaches or wagons will be painted. NATO Std grey seems best.

Ja, I'll give that livery about a 5 year lifespan max. Then they will rebrand and change to some grotesque Shoshmeyl-like colour. Soon we will have 10 different liveries to phot. Perhaps by 2010 we will have a World Cup logo on every newly painted loco.

Very nice, looks like the ruling party has now branded the railways with its colours! I know Shoshmeyel is getting a new livery and the dedicated motive power is to bew done in a sort of lilac colour to go with the train. I believe they are painting at present.

I agree it might be a challenge to keep it clean, but that´s true of most liveries which are not dull and boring. I personally think it´s a very striking livery. And although I´m no great fan of constant rebranding, I do think the new signs and notices going up around TFR properties are also rather smart and striking.

I think the sun is going to fade that nice red into a pink-ish colour over time...
