Product Description
Details
The Bristol MW (Medium Weight) was a bus and coach chassis designed and built between 1956 and 1964 by Bristol Commercial Vehicles Ltd. All the MW chassis featured either a 5 cylinder or a 6 cylinder engine with related chassis type designation. Our Oxford model is designated type 6, hence the MW6G classification
Here we see it as used by Thames Valley, decorated in their cream and maroon livery, registered 520 ABL. The interior is moulded in maroon with a black steering wheel. The front of the vehicle features a mass of contrasting chrome detail and the destination board beneath the driver’s split windscreen indicates it is travelling as a Thames Valley Relief bus. The row of additional ‘skylights’ along the side of the roof line gives the bus a light and airy feel which must have made travelling in it quite a pleasure in its day.
This model is delivered on a black base with an attached clear jewel case ready to be displayed. It can also be unscrewed from the base and placed on your model railway or diorama.
