I wondering if a common Anglia Colour Swatch should be uploaded here. The repaint looks gorgeous, but my only gripe is that it looks like yet another different shade for Anglia blue/green.

maybe some form of consistancy should be involved with Angila repaints.

Great work though

I guess the most important thing is that it matches this:

Anglia Class 86 No 86223 Norwich Union [2005296 bytes] - 86223v1.3.zip
File ID: 4943 Date: 19 Mar 2003 - 1275 Downloads

Looking really good, by the way.

I could repaint that 86, if you like?
As the coaches where quite hard to repaint...

Thank you very much for the kind comments!

I'll download the 86 and see what needs to be done

Thanks Matthew

I remember at t-s.com, there was a post saying the standard colours of the train companies. It even included UK which contained NSE, Connex, etc... But I forgot the post link.

whys that?

Id say Bens 156 is the most realistic looking shade for Anglia

I took colours from pictures.

I have almost finished the front on the 86

Thanks Matthew

Ben's 156 is Arriva, not Anglia- maybe this confusion is why you think the shades differ so much? Can't say I've noticed it that much myself.

The reason it's most important that it matches the 86 is because the 86 is what will be pulling the coaches most often. If the coaches don't match the class 170 (for example), it's less noticeable, as they're not in the same consist.

Having said that, from the screenshots the coaches look fine, and seem to match thestoat's loco well enough.

Ok, i wasnt going to repaint the 86 but the colors didnt match my coaches so i decided to go for it.

But i didnt stop at a color change!
I have redone the inside and front, i havnt done the sides as i got so carried away doing the inside!

Thanks Matthew

Looks good, but you might as well do a different number/name.

Hi Matthew

Well done, I think that they look spot-on.
I know that the 47 is very hard to reskin in these colours and think that you have done a great job.

Look forward to these as this is one of my favourite present day liveries.

Cheers

And another set of my textures used without permission - perhaps I should have written the readme in Chineese.
