Manufacturer description
This model of the Ford 400E is a British Railways Crewbus with the registration 233 GLO . Usually a 12 seater the Minibus was highly popular and versatile, being used as a taxi, a personal carrier and even by farmers with some modifications to the seating! This 1:76 scale version of this Ford model in British Railways livery will be a great addition to a railway layout from the late 1950s onwards. Painted in dark green with white lettering and registered 233 GLO, the model is a replica of a 12-seater Minibus with all-round windows that might have been used for transporting railway personnel or even ferrying train passengers in some circumstances. The chassis is black, interior grey and the wheels are masked in silver and the same green as the main body. A final touch sees the Ford Thames badge faithfully reproduced in red and silver on the front of the bonnet and on the rear.
