Oxford NRFxxx Series
AEC Regal IV London RF Class Bus

The AEC Regal IV with Metro-Cammell bodywork was chosen by London Transport as it's standardized single deck bus. The vehicles were given the RF classification and between 1950 and 1953 some 700 examples joined both the Country and Central areas of London Transport.

Early versions were delivered without doors for crew operation, but doors were soon fitted to allow the vehicles to work one man operated services.
The RF was also used to upgrade the Green Line network and although these buses appeared outwardly identical to the normal version, they were fitted with better seating and luggage racks.

During 1966 London Transport decided to upgrade 175 of the Green Line vehicles, outwardly these were fitted with twin head lamps and new curved windscreens, the remaining Green Line vehicles were transferred to normal bus services. The last RF vehicles remained in service with London Transport until March 1979. Like the RT Class many vehicles have been preserved and are a familiar sight at bus rallies up and down the country.

The Oxford model can be produced to represent both the original doored & modernized versions of the RF, the headlamps are tampo printed features on this diecast model. There haven't been any new releases of this model since 2013.
