AberdeenBill Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 Hi all, Can somebody direct me to a book (or website) that shows close-ups of the Bulleid tavern car inn signs? Many thanks, Bill Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium keefer Posted February 20, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 20, 2012 i thought there was something on the SEMG site, but only an article on the vehicles themselves, not the signs: http://www.semgonline.com/RlyMag/NewRestBuffetCarSets.pdf but did find this on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAd4AcB1t1M shows 'the white horse' and 'the jolly tar' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted February 20, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 20, 2012 HI all, These were available from Crownline at some point in history.

Brake Compo Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 There are a couple of photos in King that are fairly clear (including one close up), albeit in black & white. But somewhere I have seen a photoset of all of the signs, but am wracking my brains to think where, possibly in a Railway Magazine of the period?

Dave Staples Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 There was an Oakwood press book covering Bulleid Coaches, and I feel sure I saw images of the signs in there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 There was a slightly enlarged version published in 1994. No idea whether they are in that. Must surely be time for a reprint. Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Staples Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Perhaps it was a listing of the inn names. Its been a few years since I actually read it. Apologies for feeding you "le poisson rouge" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Scottish Modeller Posted December 12, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 12, 2019 Hi all, I have a vague recollection that Markits did these in 4mm scale? Not sure how many or which ones were available. Thanks Phil H Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRman Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I agree with Phil H in as far as "someone" did some self-adhesive tavern car signs, but I cannot remember who. I also know that at least some of the signs have appeared in a publication, but I can't remember which that was either. I know: fat lot of help that is! It does mean that somewhere along the line, one of us may come up with something useful when we are browsing our books or websites looking for something completely unrelated.

Steamport Southport Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Markits did them. I think Southern Pride did as well as part of the pre printed kits. Names were 7892 "At the sign of the White Horse" Paired with RCO 7833 7893 "At the sign of the Jolly Tar" Paired with RCO 7834 7894 "At the sign of the Dolphin" Paired with RCO 7835 7895 "At the sign of the Bull" Paired with RCO 7836 7896 "At the sign of the Salutation" Paired with RCO 7837 7897 "At the sign of the Three Plovers" Paired with RCO 7838 7898 "At the sign of the Green Man" Paired with RCO 7839 7899 "At the sign of the Crown"* Paired with RCO 7840 * later the "George and Dragon" Jason 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
