Hi, I'll give other re-skinners a chance to do this if they want, but, if no1 puts their hand up, i'd be happy to.

I'll look into it.

Are there any decent images around so I can see what it looks like?

I'm not aware of any 90's being painted in First Scotrail livery. They still belong to EWS. Some of the coaches have been painted.

There was a picture of the proposed livery in Modern Railways

5 Class 90's are going to be painted into First colours for use on the sleeper, but none have been released into traffic yet - 90024 will be the first so untill the day it is launched noone will know what the livery will look like (mock ups in mags might not be accurate).

I think they are to be liveried into the barbie colours, not the new neon livery. They may also have miniture EWS logos on the cab ends. But i suppose we will have to wait and see 8)

I would wait until the first one is released from Toton rather than working from a mock-up image.

I have progressed a fair way with this reskin myself by skinning it in what i think it will look like. :) When 90024 gets out-shopped i will alter it accordingly.

Does anyone know how i can get hold of Anton Courtney-May and Jonathan Powell to see about getting permission for an upload.
I would upload screenshots, but as i understand - this is not allowed without permission from the relevent people.

kind regards

Pretty much what the mock-up looked like in the Railway Magazine.

Nice livery though
