What colour is best for the lettering on switchgear?

Johnny4428:
It would be interesting to see an original colour to compare, I just remember reading somewhere that it wasn’t red. Maybe it varied a bit over the years too?

Spitfire:
I remember when doing mine I used Humbrol H19 but was told that originally they were orange.

Sesman:
Just had a look at my originals…they are red.

Oddjob:
No 2 is a matt red and now it's dried it's looking much better.

OE switchgear.



McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
The ones on my 400 look orange due to fading - pretty sure they are red when new.
