Code 3, 1:76 Travel Dundee model - a photo on Flickriver

Code 3, 1:76 Travel Dundee model

            In January 2020 I bought 3 “spares or repairs” models, a mix of Wright Renown and Axcess by EFE. Two of those were quickly repainted into Hutchison livery, the third was set aside and forgotten - until last week. 

The third model was in rough condition. A First Eastern Counties, Park & Ride example. Having found it I quickly set about dismantling it. I stripped it back to bare metal and gave it a full repaint. Unfortunately it fought me every step of the way, paint and primer lifting with the masking tape etc. 

Nonetheless it is now 98% complete. As is usual I have added interior details, repainting the seats and handrails appropriately. I have also added some signage, it can’t easily be seen, but I like knowing it’s there. This 1:76 scale, code 3, diecast model bus now joins my Travel Dundee (National Express Dundee) fleet.
