Specific Item Information: We go north of the border for the fourth release on the N scale Bristol Lodekka, which is liveried in one of the most famous names in Scottish bus company history. Walter Alexander began running buses in the Falkirk area in 1914 and W Alexander & Sons was formed 10 years later.
Prototype History:
The Bristol Lodekka was a half-cab low-height step-free double-decker bus built by Bristol Commercial Vehicles in England. It was the first production bus design to have no step up from the passenger entrance throughout the lower deck. Bristol manufactured over 5,200 Lodekkas from 1949 to 1968, as a standard double-deck vehicle for the UK state-owned bus sector
