Also worth noting is that most loco's and rolling stock ended up the same, uniform colour after a while - dirty black - as the cleaners were recruited or conscripted into the armed forces!
On the railway theme, can I repeat a question that I raised when this forum first started?
In the first half of the twentieth century in the UK there were very few single track railway lines. Most of the main routes were in fact made up of four separate tracks, two for express trains, up and down, and two for slow trains either freight or slow passenger. The number often expanded to as many as six where the lines came closer to London, sometimes more. It would be good, essential even, to see this modelled in BoB. Railways were an essential navigation tool for aircraft of both sides.
Continuing on the theme - these huge lines were incapable of being camouflaged, especially at night in good weather. Railway tracks in regular use literally gleam in moonlight, and are visible as high as twenty thousand feet. The Luftwaffe used them as a visual aid for finding & bombing London. I hope this has been considered.
