A fascinating insight into some of the most collectible diecast buses. Today, many magazines, clubs and events exist as the hobby thrives.
The first diecast model buses date back more than sixty years, manufactured by well-known names like Lesney, Corgi and Dinky. Few buses and coaches were initially produced, and early models were treated primarily as simple toys for children. The idea of collecting and preserving these models became more popular in the 1980s as Exclusive First Editions began to enter the market, and early models are today highly sought-after. Today, many magazines, clubs and events exist as the hobby is thriving.
Here, Simon Stanford takes a look at model bus collecting over the years and shows the wide variety of models on offer.

Simon Stanford has been a bus and coach enthusiast since his days as a child accompanying his father on excursions around Sussex. Nearly forty years later and he is still a part of the industry and enjoys sharing his memories and photographs. He also started collecting model buses and coaches in the mid-eighties when EFE produced their first Harrington coach in Southdown Livery. His collection has grown to around a thousand, most still in their boxes, and he also runs TauntonModelWorld.com.
