The photos I have SW1200s have 9273 in the black/white/grey "Burlington" scheme with white diagonal sill stripes and no red/yellow separation stripes, thus not the scheme in the Rapido drawings, with the wagon wheel antenna surviving into the BN merger. As Bryan stated, it had the script scheme before 1968.

I have a picture of unit 9277 with a BN number 235 and still in the original script slogan scheme. I can't tell if the wagon wheel antenna is on it.

The pictures I have of unit 9285 have the scheme in the Rapido drawings although a few years before the BN merger, None of my pictures of the 9281-9292 batch show a wagon wheel antenna with all of them in full color "Burlington" scheme depicted in the Rapido drawings.

Out of the photos I have of the earlier batch of SW1200, units 9276 and 9278 by BN merger were in the scheme Rapido shows in their drawings. While both units in the mid-to late 1960s have the wagon wheel antenna and in the newer scheme, unit 9278 lost the antenna and had a orange/white diagonal striped sill a year or so before the BN merger. The remaining units in the earlier batch, except the 9273 noted above, remained in the script scheme until the BN merger.
