Hi,
thanks for posting this interesting Pictures.
Three things I thought about while watching:
- The Lady on pic 5 is the same as on pic 7. - Is it poosible that the squared something held by the two busses in pic 3 is a mirror that helped the happy lady to few something she wouldn´t see without? - One of These two busses on the same pic has two colors. Maybe a color trial?

They're all fine as far as I can see. Perhaps your self-righting mechanism is faulty

Stephen,
The SF-17B Londoner Daimler Bus you talk about being a possible colour trail I think could be the Impel 76 model as these photo's are from this era. There is also a Berger Paints model with the same coffee coloured top and cream coloured base.
Cheers,Steve

Re: Inside the factories Matchboxkiwi
Here are some more photo's from inside the factories;
Lee Conservency Road computer room - photo taken 5th July 1976.
Looks like it's nearly 10:30, smoko time. Sorry, morning tea! The typing and comping room. What's Comping?
National accounts office. Looks like there could be some 1-75 wall displays two thirds of the way up the left had side of the photo. You can clearly see a Yesteryear plated ash tray being put to it's intended use. Also I can see a price list for March 1976 as I have one of these. There are also a number of order sheets around the place.
Boxes of the newly recoloured SF39 Clipper, although the stamped number on side of the box isn't very clear.
Plastic kit set packing line at the Peterbough factory.
Cheers, Steve
