Corgi OM41908 (Hants) Leyland Titan PD3/Queen Mary open top d/deck bus "Provincial"

This item has a limited edition certificate included.

Queen Mary 423 (423 DCD) was delivered new to Southdown in June 1964. She spent her entire Southdown career based at Portsmouth, spending most summers working as an open topper along the seafront on Hayling Island. It was re-registered in 1986 (WOW 993T) and left Southdown in May 1987, passing to People's Provincial in Fareham, Hampshire becoming its 202. She spent the summer of 87 working an open top service around the Gosport area, being re-roofed and converted for driver training duties at the end of that season. In the spring of 1993 it was withdrawn and sold to a local scrap merchant, from where it was rescued for preservation in October 1994. It is currently being restored in Hampshire to its original condition.
