Sunstar Routemaster RM Buses 2008
Sunstar's OB Coach is featured on it's own page - click here
Sunstar's AEC Regent III RT is featured on it's own page - click hereFor 2007, Sun Star will offer three new models, a 1964 re-furbished RMC with revised front wings and grille, wider "via" box and revised Green Line livery, an "out-of-town" RM from the GLC years, and RM2217 as it ran on Route 159 between Streatham and Marble Arch on December 9th 2005, the last Routemaster. These three models will constitute the final chapter of the Sun Star Routemaster story and then, like the real vehicle, the moulds will be "retired".
Sun Star’s tooling design engineers have excelled in the amount of detail incorporated into this superb replica that is hand assembled from 248 parts from 23 separate moulds. The main body of the model is cast in metal while the fine detail components, including seats, driver’s cab interior, handrails, clear lamp lenses, mirrors, indicators and over 200 other fine components are moulded in high quality plastics. The delicate radiator and brake cooling grilles are produced by photo etching to exact scale while hand finishing, ink pad printing operations and decals provide exact copies of the original exterior and interior decoration. Open the bonnet and there in full detail is the 9.6 litre AEC six-cylinder diesel engine looking ready for the driver to start up! Underfloor detail is not missed either with engine/transmission, axle, subframes, fuel and air brake system features all there in three dimensions.

Routemaster Coach 1/24 -
Greenline
Green. RMC 1486 - 486 CLT - Greenline. In 1964, less than two years after their introduction, it was decided to give a face-lift to the RMC's. The main changes were at the front where the wings were revised to give a smoother, deeper line, the brake vents were omitted and the registration plate was attached beneath the lower edge of the body. The "via" box was widened to match the main destination blind box and the lower half of the front ventilation grille was covered to form a continuous band between the two decks. The main livery changes included the disappearance of the main Green Line wording on the side of the lower decks and the use of decals for a revised roundel which was moved forward on the sides to below the first window of the upper deck. Please note - Sunstar have changed the spec of this model from the pre-production studio photo left to the actual model. The DESTINATION now reads GUILDFORD, not WINDSOR. IN STOCK. |

Routemaster 1/24 - LT Red. RM 21 - VLT21 - The GLC
Years.
On January 1st 1970, London Transport was transferred from state to municipal control. The main external changes related to the change from gold to white for the central band between the two decks and fleet names, and the adoption of the plain white roundel as the logo for the new operator. RM21 was one of the original batch of Routemasters and still maintained its original front upper deck windows without the quarter-drop upper part which was introduced from RM254 onwards. IN STOCK. |

Routemaster 1/24 - Arriva Red.
RM 2217 -
CUV 217C - The Last Routemaster. On December 9th 2005, the Routemaster finally disappeared from regular service in London, after more than 50 years of active service. Although several vehicles were in service that day, the officially designated "last" Routemaster was RM2217 which operated on Route 159 between Streatham and Marble Arch. Sun Star model 2914 replicates RM2217 exactly as it ran its last journey. A limited number of Routemasters continues to operate on so-called Heritage Routes as can be seen from the advertisements on RM2217. |
