EE Type 4 No. 276 passes between Tweedmouth Yard and the closed MPD with the 11:50 Aberdeen to Kings Cross Freightliner on 19 September 1970. While a bulled-up green class 40 could look very smart see image 26757, my opinion is that in more typical condition they looked drab in the extreme and that the blue livery was actually an improvement, something not necessarily the case for every class.
