I thought i saw an LO-liveried train at Ilford depot on saturday. I was
passing through, looked out of the window, and saw a train of modern
design, painted white, with an orange strip above the windows. I was on
the wrong side of the carriage, and reacting too slowly, to get a look at
the space below the windows, so it could have been something else
entirely.

Might well have been something else entirely, I dunno.

Anyway Tom Page took this picture of what I think is a class 313 train
at Highbury & Islington - it just has a simple sticker on the side of
the train stating "London Overground" in New Johnson type on a white
background.

I don't see there as being any great need to re-livery these trains as
they'll start to be replaced sometime next year (or is it 2009?)
anyway. Properly cleaning the interior would be a most welcome move
though!

There seemed to be no great hurry when LU re-liveried their own trains
into the "corporate colours" a few years ago so I wouldn't expect to
see an immediate change before trains go for whatever level of service
involves yanking off the old vinyls.
