You're probably right, but I didn't take any notice of DB trains until 1990, so that's be before my time I expect. On the other hand, I didn't mind the liveries on the DR locos in Eastern Germany in 1991, maybe a combination of less garish reds and a substantial covering of grime, in many cases. And there was such an incredible number of locos back then - the only units were old railcars & trailers, plus the Berlin S-bahn units. Still some standard-gauge steam pottering about the place then as well...

(75 out of the 76 DB photos are thankfully in black & white - warning - this should change at some stage!) AND I've discovered I've got some pics here of a couple of preserved TEE units, I THINK they were red & cream. I'll find out when I've scanned my slides.
