Corgi have released the following text and two pre-production photographs regarding their 60th Anniversary Routemaster model:
Corgi are commemorating their 60th anniversary year by producing a series of specifically selected models which will be presented in distinctive blue and yellow anniversary packaging and will be made available at extremely attractive prices. Some of these models have already started to appear in pre-production form and we thought you might like to see one of them.
The Routemaster bus was designed and built in London by AEC and Park Royal Vehicles and were specifically constructed for London Transport use. Although conventional in appearance, the design was technically sophisticated, featuring innovative construction techniques, braking systems and semi-automatic transmission. Featured on tourist souvenirs at outlets all around London, the traditional red Routemaster is one of the most famous images of Britain’s capital and perhaps one of the most iconic public transport vehicles in the world.
This handsome model is currently scheduled for release during April 2016 and will be a fantastic way to mark Corgi’s 60th anniversary.

I have been contacted by David Cooper of Timbercraft Cabinets and A Route 2 Hire who gave me details of some models he has commissioned for both business's. David writes:
"I have had a long association with Corgi since 1982. They have produced many models for me over the years. The models were produced by the company who supply Corgi and we had 10 Borismasters made. I have a few left at £34-95.
I have also had 25 EFE Routemasters produced (for Timbercraft), both RM & RML. I have a few left @ £25.
The A Route 2 Hire RML was produced for customers who hire a bus from me for their weddings. Again only around 25 were produced and I have a few left @ £25.
All models are plus £5-50 tracked P&P.
If anyone wants a model then they can email me on david@displaycases.co.uk and cheques payable to David Cooper".
