I have heard it said that the GWR painted all its own engines (those that it built itself) in GWR Brunswick green. Absorbed locos were painted in black. Is this true?
If so did it remain true through the war years (WW2)?
I suspect that it's not true as this would have resulted in goods eg 28XX engines being painted green. If so, is there a simple rule of thumb which explains the policy?
Any help would be much appreciated.
