159107 the start of a new livery variation?
The rebuilding of former three car class 158 units to class 159/1 for included making them RVAR (i.e. disability) compliant and as with the previous Class 442 C6 overhauls this has included painting passenger doors within the "swoosh" part of the livery in a contrasting colour - in both cases orange. However, 159107 was out-shopped with all doors on the unit orange rather than the red customarily used in the mainline livery. It has yet to be established whether this is an experiment, the start of a new livery or a mistake!
