Manufacturer description

New tooling brings the Weymann Fanfare on a Leyland chassis into the 1:76 Omnibus range in Southdown livery.

The fresh two-tone light and dark green Southdown livery comes with contrasting cream masking round the windows and cream detailing to the front and back, with additional chrome work to create that extra eye-catching sparkle. The Southdown logo is finished in gold and black dropped shadow lettering and we see from the front that our single deck 37-seater coach is going to Brighton. Registered XUF 141, additional gold lettering on the lower near side indicates the vehicle comes under the Southdown Motor Services Ltd, 5 Steine Street, Brighton and operates at a speed of 30 mph. Internal detail includes a pale grey driver's compartment, while the passenger seating is pale green. The two external roof lights are also highlighted with a silver surround.
