    Looking at preserved-diesels.co.uk, I saw this picture of Class 20s on driver training runs in preparation for this weekend's specials with Sarah Siddons.

    What caught my eye, however, was the coaches behind the loco in this picture:

    It looks like London Underground have painted their 4TC set in a scumbled teak finish! Anyone got any pictures of the full set?

    The Met loco hauled coaches did have a similar kind of finish. The appearance of the preserved Chesham set on the Bluebell Railway is probably more authentic though.
