Anywhere you'd like to start - if there's a batch of vehicles you're most interested in, start there.

Any details on repaints, transfers, etc.
I usually go through GNE's Fleet Archive document and search for a specific fleet number - copying and pasting the details regarding that vehicle as I go.
After that, I usually go on Flickr and type in 'go north east [fleet number]' and fill in details regarding repaints and any blanks missed out on the Fleet Archive, in 'Most Recent' order. I repeat the process but with the registration of the vehicle, both with and without a space in the middle.
I collected all of the above information about 4923 by doing that, and I'd say that it's a pretty good account of the vehicle's life.
