Manufacturer description

The Bristol MW (Medium Weight) was a bus and coach chassis designed and built by Bristol Commercial Vehicles Ltd between 1956 and 1964. The chassis type designation was either MW5G or as in the case of our Oxford replica - MW6G.

For its third outing, our Bristol MW6G is liveried in the brilliant white colour of Eastern Counties National Bus Company. Registered 3804 PW, the single deck coach features the red and blue 'arrow' graphics we associate with National and the front destination plate sees it going to Ely as the 499. The interior floor is moulded in cream, the seating red and the steering wheel black. The wealth of windows on this bus must have given passengers a very nice view along the way.
