fiftyfour fiftyfour Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Help! I've looked in the usual places such as London Bus Replica Transfers (LRBT) and Model Master Jackson Evans (despite their search facility not being entirely unfit for purpose) and I cannot find anyone that does the London Buses Roundel for 1987 LBL style as per this style... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/London-Buses-Vinyl-Logo-Roundel-Bus-Stop-Sign/324047461147 I've found (in both places above) the area names but these are useless without the roundel, and the latter is not something I can easily print at home as its white with round edges. Suggestions please!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crompton 33 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Mabex list them as Bullseye . Is that what you mean in white. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernardTPM Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) I suspect not. The plain white came before the semi-privatised cream and red style. Edited April 16, 2020 by BernardTPM 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiftyfour fiftyfour Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 The ones I seek have a red circle on a white background with a yellow crossbar, London Buses written through the crossbar in red. They were known as "1987" or "LBL" and were applied from 1987 until each lump was sold off in about 1995. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddieK Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 On Facebook, seek out "Bus Stop Prints Decals". May be of use... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiftyfour fiftyfour Posted April 29, 2020 Author Share Posted April 29, 2020 Mabex came good, and delivered quite quickly. How long they will remain an option I don't know as they only accept cheques so will soon have no ability to collect income, got two sets in case I ever find another of the Tryst Models half L-Class Olympian that needs an EFE donor vehicle to complete.

fiftyfour fiftyfour Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Follow up from original question; London Buses logos from Mabex, adverts, destinations and small detail from LBRT. Still seeking a suitable T shaped advert for the offside as it looks a bit naked without anything, I wish people would occasionally take square-on side shots of buses so I can cut and paste the advert off a photo! 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
