  • Thanks for watching my video.
    For model buses, you may find the following links useful:
    Model Bus Zone: www.modelbuszone.co.uk
    The Model Bus Zone is an excellent website that has a clear and concise database of models that have been released and is very useful for locating models you are after. However, The Model Bus Zone does not offer buses for sale in any form and is merely a database.
    www.ebay.co.uk› sch › Bus-Coachukbus in Bus & Coach | eBay
    Is a search on eBay that will bring up a large amount of new and pre-owned Creative Master Northcord model buses.
    www.ywbc.co.uk/
    YWBC is a long established and very trustworthy business that offers an excellent selection of model buses at very reasonable prices, where all the funds go towards preservation of their vehicle.

    I miss these liveries as well...!!!
    Theres nothing like creativity when it comes to having different bus operator colours/designs...!!!

      It's because it's more efficient in terms of saving money. Keeping all buses red not only saves money on paint but, allows to switch out parts easier, regardless of the operator.

      Exactly it’s the same in Northern Ireland they went from having grey and blue or grey and pink to panting them all blue and all pink

    I am all for bringing back the 80% red and 20% company colour. It helps identify a bus on a route and suits the enthusiast.

  • @DanielsUKT
    @DanielsUKT Před 5 lety +3

    I think London buses should go back to 80 percent red instead of 100 percent red it looks better and isn't bland
    The liveries I will miss is stagecoach arriva first go ahead London and metroline I remember those growing up all those liveries are gone bar the go ahead one which a handful of buses still have

    • @Moshimulations
      @Moshimulations Před rokem

      Not gonna lie, but I used to look forward to going on the GAL or Metroline buses, as soon as they all turned red, it was the Abellio for me.
      Personally now, London buses have less character than they used to.
