Normally they are not used  beyond Polgahawela on the main line. Usually not going upcountry now.  But have gone there regularly until the previous decade. They are painted in a livery of dark blue, light blue, silver with yellow striping; although No. 752 Point Pedro was painted in a special ICE livery. [YOUTUBE]G6imKRU7U0k[/YOUTUBE] </blockquote>
