20230116 (4)_1-48_Bedford_QL_Refueller
Completion shot of this Accurate Armour 1:48 RAF fighter/light bomber Bedford QL-based airfield refueller. Conversions to refuellers were carried out by contractors such as Butterfields which sometimes results in mislabelling of the vehicle. The camouflage is late 1942 but could have been encountered almost any time during the war after that as repaints were only undertaken if absolutely necessary (and except for expeditionary forces that would be less and less of a consideration as the war picture changed.) Markings reflect 2 Group Bomber Command which is where the light bombers were concentrated.
