    Those look really nice, love the differences .
  • To paraphrase Woody Allen's very funny movie "Bananas" - I'm bananas over this video. Thanks for this enjoyable and informative video!
  • @joshuaW5621
    I love how weathered some of them look. It gives them a sense of realism.
  • Banana!
  • Nice vans!! They can be customised to be used by any of the banana importers. Geest is quite an attractive livery!!
  • I’m not sure if they have a banana van at the Epping Ongar Railway!! I’m no longer working there, but still belong to the Volunteer Association so get regular updates.
  • I believe that there’s a Tadpole Trust coming to the Epping Ongar Railway. I think they are rebuilding a tadpole van.
  • Those are exceptional models!! I think it’s very likely that I’m going to find an Accurascale dealership at which to buy them.

    At least Bachmann aren’t putting all their resources into banana vans, Accurascale have got very boring lately in my opinion, the days of leaders of great model railway items has come to an end.
