Any Wiganer, who for nostalgic reasons, that would like to view the company that produces these Wigan Corporation bus models, go to http://www.modelbuszone.co.uk/efe/dd/158/15801a.html

As a nostalgic keepsake, go to. EFE 15801: Leyland Titan PD1 Bus, Wigan Corporation; Rt 3 Ince Bar: Boxed. The Abbey Lakes bus can also be displayed. I believe they are something in the region of £7.50. Either copy, and paste, in the address bar, or just type it into the address bar. ( Sorry if it appears that I am trying to teach you how to suck eggs.) I only put this on as a matter of interest, as I am aware, even the photograph of such Wigan Corporation buses stir nostalgic feelings.

Dose anybody know why they had that black section on the roof?The first time that ever saw the roof of a bus was from the flats in Scholes.

Tuddy. I'm not sure, but weren't they transparencies to let in the light?.

Great little models. Just a pity they're made in China.

Trish. Probably if they were made here, they would be much dearer to buy.

That could be the answer Albert,but I can't remember them being transparent.
