Y182 BGB - Hutchison of Overtown, 1:76 scale model. Volvo Wright Renown.
Front View - The 1:76 scale tribute to Y182 BGB, a Volvo Wright Renown, new to Scottish Independent bus & coach operator Hutchison of Overtown (Hutchison’s Coaches), is finally completed following the application of correct VRM (Vehicle Registration Mark or “number plates” and the reapplication of external mirrors - both clearly visible in this picture.
Prior to their takeover by First Glasgow, Hutchison’s were one of my favourite of the Lanarkshire independent operators, and this representation both celebrates their efforts and those of the new owners of the real life 182 which entered preservation after withdrawal from First Glasgow operational fleet. The real bus has been beautifully restored to this livery and a near as new condition as it was when delivered to Hutchison’s depot.
