Bedford J1 Ambulance Dublin

Bedford J1 Ambulance Dublin

From its introduction in the mid 1950s the Bedford J1 chassis immediately proved a winner with fleet operators including the ambulance service. Commonly featuring coachwork by Herbert Lomas Ltd., of Wilmslow, Cheshire our model is decorated in the unusual livery of Dublin Fire Brigade which operated the city’ ambulances and is currently the only fire brigade in Britain and Ireland that retains that facility. The real vehicle is currently preserved in the National Transport Museum of Ireland.

Our authentic replica is also part of the 1:76 series of emergency vehicles and for those of you who collect 1:148 scale models, we are pleased to present this unusual dual role vehicle in exactly the same clean white/red colour scheme with an equal amount of detail, registered HZD 516.
