The coach illustrated below is a mystery. Listed via eBay, it is described as of wooden construction, built to a high standard with Bonds compensated brass bogies, sprung buffers, flexible corridor connectors etc. The name on the chassis (see third photo) is Oxford Model Co, Park Town Garages, Oxford. Who was the Oxford Model Co? When were they active? Was the coach scratch built or a kit? CCW, perhaps?
