Andrew P Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 I see more Busses are on the horizon mate, do you have a shelf for them, as I didn't see one last time I was up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeT Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 Good evening Andy, Having a big tidy up in the den over the weekend as l have too many buses and need to get some more display cabinets, better than keeping them hid in boxes ?

brossard Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Busses??? (or is that buses?) Where do you get buses? I've scoured the Oxford and Corgi range and can't find any. I fancy a Bedford OB or similar. I've seen one on Trebudoc. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
