Release update - 3rd May 2008
The Don Craggs Memorial Set
Britbus are planning to release a commemorative set of two models in
remembrance of Don Craggs - each set will include a booklet telling the
Don Craggs Story. The models pictured below are shown at a very early
stage in their preparation. The set will be released in limited
numbers - it is currently planned that N62 will
have a silver-plated base-plate and interior and ES2 will have a gold-plated base
plate and interior.
