I seem to remember these being painted blue. If my memory's not totally shot, when did they switch from the green to blue?

Cars were converted to B&O Royal blue around 67 - 68. Due to the shortage of cars in service from fires, the paint schemes had to be done in stages at Clifton. The grey ends came first. So, cars were green, green & grey then blue & grey. The last paint job was all blue, grey roof with yellow grab irons and grey safety screens for protection from rock throwers.
