Bus Progress on Glasburgh


Tay Bridge

379 views

I have started to make some progress towards getting the layout buses in the guise I remember from 1980.

Still work to be done on the TRC Blue buses (temporary Destinations and signs ) but they are beginning to look like their prototypes!

Scottish buses aren't really my sphere of knowledge, but thought these may be of help

http://www.sunrisetransfers.com/cat.html I know George does a lot of Scottish specific stuff, you may find something of help, then again you may already know of his stuff.

 

Usual disclaimer, just a happy customer.

 

Cheers,

Mark.

the northern & fife buses look very nice, not just sure what the others are to be representing?- the guy in the fife fleetline looks like he could do with an adjustable steering column! :lol: :D

Ah well , think he needs to go on a diet as well!!!

The other ones are, when finished, to represent two Tayside Region buses. These were the Dundee Council owned buses. Prior to this new livery they were all over green. Tricky bit is getting transfers for the Tayside Region logos. (have someone doing these for me on waterslide transfer sheets) Think they will look quite good when proper transfers put on and weathered. These buses often looked pretty grubby particularly in winter. Just another part of re living my youth!!!:rolleyes:

See http://themunicipals.fotopic.net/c1229797.html if you are interested. I am awaiting a Volvo Ailsa in London red to re livery in similar colours. These were very common and the mainstay of the fleet by about 1980 I think.
