Manufacturer description

There's no mistaking the bright red, cream and green signature colour scheme of the famous Scottish company MacBraynes, complete with its famous Highlander logo with shield and raised sword, which is seen here adorning both sides of the Bedford single deck OWB bus. Bedford originally manufactured the OWB vehicles for the War Department based on the OB coach/bus specification but after the war, many passed into civilian use, being bought up by public transport companies. The Oxford series of 1:76 scale OWB buses has covered a wide geographical spread to date and this latest one will be snapped up by our Scottish bus enthusiasts in particular. Its destination board sees it heading for Fort William on the west coast of Scotland, registered DUS 24.
