The colour scheme of the class V 60.10 changed over the years. The locomotives put into service from class V 60 1097 onwards were painted Bordeaux red and had two cream-coloured decorative stripes. Additionally to the locomotive's roofs and front structures, the upper part of the driver's cab was also painted cream. In the 1970s, the rod-driven diesel locomotives of the class V 60.10 were painted orange like all DR shunting locomotives.
