Auto Coach Colours

Hi John H -T:

Thanks again for the information. I too have looked at a number of pictures of auto coach operations and have come to the conclusion that the lines are very blurred regarding changes in logos and colour schemes.

Having collected bits and pieces of OO stuff over the last 25 thirty years I am starting to put together a small model branchline. My auto coach is made by Mainline. It's crimson and cream and bears the designation W178W.

I am going to assume the auto coach would have been hauled or pushed anytime between 1950 and 1958. Anything after that would have been maroon in colour.

Before moving to Canada in 1972, I lived in Marlow and travelled the Marlow Branch Line many times. Hopefully I can recreate a little bit of that terminus and time in OO.

Cheers
