RAF Ground Equipment Blue was still in use when I joined up in 1964. As the name suggests it was used on all Non- MT vehicle equipment. RAF trains were included in the classification Ground equipment. The colour was Traffic Blue, to BS 381 (1931 later additions) tint No 69. I understand the colour was given a new title in the BS 381 1964 revision but to date I have never been able to positively convert it . However from colour chip charts my best guess is the current BS 381C tint 109 Middle Blue.
