Liveries

The first green livery would appear to have been a mid-green, somewhere between a Malachite green and a Brunswick green. An aluminium waist band gave them "lining". Roofs were grey.

Whiskers would be added, as seen on E79961 at Witham station on March 21, 1959, with the 3.42pm service to Braintree. Michael Mensing.

Later the green was the standard DMU darker green, and yellow warning panels were added to the lower front end panels. There were two different sizes of panels used. 79960/3 had small panels and 79961/2/4 had slightly larger panels.
