Aberdeen Coach 1
OXFORD DIECAST PRESS RELEASE
The 1:76 scale Northern Alexander M-Type. The M-Type was a motorway coach built for the Scottish Bus Group Anglo-Scottish services. You’ve seen it in Western livery and with an Eastern colour scheme and here it is once more as operated by Alexander Northern Scottish, The destination blind indicates it is travelling to Aberdeen as Coach 1.
It is decorated in bright yellow with cream side panel and cream masked roof which incorporates clear roof skylights. The exterior trim is black and silver and an interesting feature sees the right hand side rear window painted white from the inside, echoing the days on many long distance coaches where passenger privacy was required. Our model is registered GSO 531N from 1974.
The coach interior is even more colourful. Whilst the dashboard and steering wheel are black, the driver’s seat is bright green. The passenger seating and floor are moulded in deep red and the other interior panelling, luggage racks and driver’s surround are all beige.
Walter Alexander founded Alexander’s Motor Services in 1913 to extend existing public transport services in the area. In 1923 he founded W Alexander & Sons Limited to run buses and also to build bodywork for both the company’s own fleet and for sale to other operators. In 1947, Walter Alexander formed yet another company Walter Alexander & Company (Coachbuilders) Ltd, which expanded rapidly. Walter Alexander remained a private family run firm until 1987 when it became a public listed company. Following years saw the business change hands several times but the name is still at the forefront of the industry today under the auspices of Alexander Dennis.
