In 1987, 86224 'Caledonian' was repainted in an approximation of the AL6 original livery for the 20th anniversary of Radio 1. It hauled a special train that included a live broadcast and is seen here leaving Glasgow Central. I think there was a later attempt at a similar repaint to commemorate the start of electric services out of Euston and this involved an AL6 sporting electric blue livery, something they never did originally.
