Propaganda Man
Some 12 years after purchase by Quicksilver, Albion Coachways have unexpectedly received their first-ever brand new vehicle. This Scania/Irizar i6 wasn't intended for this fleet and was instead to be painted silver for the parent company, but the primer coat went bad and the green Nitromors I had wouldn't shift the paint. While it sat waiting for a decent stripper to be procured, Oxford released the silver Kings Ferry version so that replaced it at Quicksilver and it ended up getting a bare metal respray in ivory for Albion instead. Numbered 60 and registered AC18 ACW, it is named 'Propaganda Man' after a Ray Wilson song as a result of the publicity it generated as the operator's first brand new coach.
