That's a cracker that like!
I will contact the picture owner, get it on the site. We could have a transport page. I also have the Helicopter from The Special, I will put that up later......

Yes, I was always tickled by the Osborne Road thing. And the fact that when Dennis drops Ally and Vicki at the airport in Return of the Seven Part 1, the X77 bus is plastered with advertisements for "Patterson's"

You can imagine the Bus Driver...

Me - "Osbourne road please..."

Bussy - "What for like!?..."

Oh dear...
