Limited edition Exclusive First Editions models for Spring Gathering

The London Bus Museum has announced details of this year’s limited edition models that are being produced by Exclusive First Editions for the annual Spring Gathering on 29th April.

26322B is a Daimler Utility D73 on route 88 to Clapham Common with side adverts for the Spring Gathering. It will be produced in a limited run of 213 pieces. 26410A is a Guy Utility G148 on route 79 to Alperton LT Stn with side adverts for the London Bus Museum. It will be produced in a limited run of 400 pieces.

The models, priced at £15, or £13 to card-carrying LBPT members, will be on sale at the Museum Shop marquee at the event. Due to the low production quantities, it’s likely that the models will sell out at the event but, should any stock be left over, mail order arrangements will be announced on the website: www.londonbusmuseum.com

Museum members who volunteer to work at the event will be able to reserve their models in advance but this facility will not be available in other circumstances.

The Spring Gathering, now in its 39th year, is the largest bus show in the South East, with up to 300 historic and modern buses on display as well as rides and a large collectors’ market. All proceeds from the event go to the London Bus Museum, a registered charity.

• The Spring Gathering will be held at Wisley Airfield, Surrey, on 29th April.
