Re: New PRASA colours
Wow. That really is impressive. Is the word 'MetroRail' still retained?

Re: New PRASA colours
What does the grey motive in the middle of the coach resemble (not the PRASA logo)? It looks like a pregnant woman!
Also, what is the yellow? Is it graffitti already?
I also noted that all the windows aren't the same, I like the side-slide windows the most as you can stick see better, the vertically moving windows aren't glass and they tend to go ugly very quickly and then you can't see a thing through them.

Blimey, at first glance it looked like a First National Bank branded train.
Not quite on the rails.

Re: New PRASA colours
Marc if you are referring to the object on top of carriage no4. It is a signal for the down line.If you look carefully between the 2nd and 3rd carriages. There, something strange seems to be happening .

Yep I see it now. They are definitely up to no good.

Do these replace the Metro colours? At the Metro refurb place I pass every day they are still busy churning out coaches in the yellow and grey colours every day.

Re: New PRASA colours
There is a lady that runs a business just outside Touwsrivier. They respray Metro coaches providing work for the local population. You can see it from the train as you pass. I hope someone has informed her of the new colour change

Re: New PRASA colours
We are at last becoming a "Rainbow Railway". Nice colour schemes these days.

Re: New PRASA colours
Saw these two motorcoaches (or others in the same colour scheme) on Wednesday and there was also other coaches in the consist with PEP-boutique adverts, almost looks like the Russian trains posted some time ago.
