Yes my location research let me down, fences are a fact of life here in the UK. No consideration for rail togs :(

Look like standard Ex British Rail Mk1 stock, in what is affectionately called "Blood & Custard" livery which was the normal paint scheme for inter city services in the 1950's. More info here http://en.wikipedia.or​g/wiki/British_Rail_Ma​rk_1 (external link)
