Manufacturer description

Oxford's Weymann Fanfare tooling provides the option to model the coach with either an AEC or a Leyland chassis. One of the key differences identifying which it is - apart from the radiator badge - is that the Leyland casting features a different rear design and the flash round the front is wider. For this release, we are pleased to present the single deck vehicle on an AEC body in the fresh green and cream colour scheme of coach operators Birch Bros of London.

Registered RYT 34, the front destination panel cushioned in the cream flash beneath the driver's split windscreen, tells us the coach is heading as the 203 to London. Another detail to note is the AEC badge above the destination board on the front and again under the registration plate on the back. With roof windows offering a light and airy feel, the interior floor and seating are both mid brown while the driver's compartment, enhanced with wrap around windows, is silver grey.
