Just to point out as well,First South Yorkshire (to my knowledge) don't have any Volvo B6s in the driving school-not sure in other driving schools within FirstGroup.
Thanks,

Stage 2. Gone abut mad with the nitromors. The inside of the bus will be done first grey so it doesnt look odd. Transit Where did you get the fleetnumbers and logo's from? Attachments:

Transit Where did you get the fleetnumbers and logo's from? ...according to your first post , you had got all the logo's ect !? If you now need some - ( i make all my own transfers) - you can see me at the Model exh in Sheff on June 18th and i will sort it ?  |

Cool Thanks. How much do you charge for a couple of transfers? Do you make the transfers that are double sided with paper then you slowly peel them off?

... no they are waterslide . Just soak in water for 5 seconds , then slide into position - easy !
btw , if you go to the model show , you can buy some Humbrol size tins of First paint (grey , pink and blue) at £2 each.
