Coach Liveries

Hi,



Could someone please refresh my memory as to when British Railways introduced the yellow band on coach exteriors above first class accommodation?



Thanks,

From memory it was inherited from pre nationalisation practice, started on London suburbans in the 1920s if memory serves. I could be wrong on this, BR may have officially addopted it at some point.

All the best,
