I've found a photo of us in an early publicity shot - winter of 60/61 I would guess. XN465, 548 and 550 and XM346. All look brand new, and are in the colour scheme I gave above. No CFS crest yet, and no fleet numbers, but 465 is coded RU and 346 as RR.

And there were one or two pre-production Mk 3s at CFS in 59/60, with LERX that were returned to the factory. Did they have yellow bands on silver?
