A-stock heaven at Chalfont and Latimer, November, 1989. Can anyone tell me why some A-stock units had red-painted roofs?  Change for Chesham by David Henderson, on Flickr |

Ah the memories!
I believe the red roofs were done on one particular overhaul, but it wasn’t repeated.

Five units were done maroon (or Met Line colour) and three red. Then came the decree from the top about corporate standards ....

That colour is beautiful, I'd love to see it return!
