I love the DRS Compass Livery. Also like the understated West Coast Livery, but that is really passenger.

Best wishes,

John H-T.

I'm with you on your first comment John, it looks alot more lively than the older 'patch' livery, although it does become abit messy on the 20s and 37s. Although I'm against the WCRC livery myself, it is too dark, but thats just me being fussy

Now that EWS is now known as DB Schenker Rail (UK), I think the new livery is quite striking, though perhaps a bit too red for some people tastes!

Best Is Lh!!

my favorite companys are DRS and GBRF,but the best livery has got to go to LOADHAUL,it's probaly the best out of all freight companys past and present.

i would also like to say 'LOADHAUL' livery would match on any freight loco,anyone agree?(espicially class 66s)

and i think that the DB SHCENKER livery looks like a tangerine that is even to orange for itself!!!!!!
