It’ll be all Wight on the night…. #5

And the rest of the buses.

There’s nothing like an old open-topper (unless it’s snowing.)  A Southern Vectis Bristol K5G dating from 1940.

Three generations of front-engine single deckers.  I have a soft spot for the older versions, though I’m not convinced by that narrow-gauge one!  A 1934 Dennis Ace, a 1949 Bedford OB, and a 1985 Ford Transit.

A classic AEC Matador service vehicle.  How many OO layouts have had conversions of the British Army version on their roads?

Upstairs, downstairs, on a Bristol ‘Lodekka’.

Some older vehicles…  A 1957 Bedford SB3 with a lovely Duple Vega body, the rear of a 1956 open top Bristol ‘Lodekka’.  A 1956 Bristol MW6G single decker, some front ends, and some rear ends….

And some needing a lot of TLC….  a 1927 Daimler CK rescued from duty as a garden shed.

Still more delights to come, as Allan and Ron wend their way home.
