Does anybody know where I can obtain the British Railways maroon and cream signs as carried on maroon road vehicles. O gauge. I’ve searched everywhere.

I remember them running up and down our street in the 50s and early 60s. Our side street was part of a 'Rat Run' which came from the station avoiding the traffic lights and traffic on the main road from the station. They were loud, smoky and smelly. Probably because of their 2-stroke diesel engines.

Used to see a lot in the Slough goods yard.
