"IF you wanted to be strictly prototypical, then you would be limited to that stock used between Axminster and Lyme Regis. Early crest BR (1949-1956 application) COULD just include some late Southern Railway livery coaching stock and pre-BR wagons (mainly the ones with the small lettering over the wagon number GW, NE, LMS, SR.) Some pretty worn Private Owner Wagons, possibly with BR \"P\" prefix numbers. The Southern kept its coaches in green as much as possible by re-varishing rather than re-painting... The through coaches could possibly include Crimson and Cream Re-painted SR or BR Mk1 coaches (introduced 1951, so pretty new then!) Official BR colours for non-corridor SR coaches was Plain Crimson. some were lined, others not lined it seems. "
