Southern Electricity Board part 2
SEB initially had a dark green livelry which was changed to light green and magnolia in 1966. The 1990s saw new schemes - and more specialised vehicles. Later vehicles were grey, with reflective sideboards, before finally becoming silver. SSE vehicles have since changed to a blue and green colour scheme.
