202800


This is the hexadecimal colour code used for Hull and Barnsley Railway lines.

Sample:  
  • According to E.F. Carter, the Hull and Barnsley Railway locomotive colour from 1913 was 'an "invisible" green, i.e. a black, shining as a kind of green in certain lights, as an oil patch on a wet road'.[1] The colour   #202800 is actually the value for {{LNWR colour}} (a bluish violet) with the hue rotated 180°, retaining the same saturation and intensity.
