Orange (or yellow?) Bertie? - confusedanddelayed - 07-04-2019
Is anyone aware of a version of Bertie the bus that isn't red? I saw a listing on eBay with an orange (or maybe yellowish) motorized Bertie, but I didn't know there were any versions that weren't red. Bulgy, sure, they made a red and then green version, but not Bertie. Anyone have any insight? Thanks!

I saw the same same Listing and thought the same thing.

I was thinking of buying it just for Lorry but passed and it was grabbed up with a Best Offer. Ebay Listing

This is odd beyond belief. It was most likely a factory error since it looks like a normal one that got bleached. Strangely, the wheels are still the correct colour.
Reminds me of this Mighty Mac coach (left) we had a thread about:

I wonder if it is just one that was left in the sun for too long, red gets affected by the sun more than other colours and bleaches quickly....
RE: Orange (or yellow?) Bertie? - confusedanddelayed - 07-04-2019
It doesn't appear, to me, to be a result of sun fading because the color looks to be completely uniform. I suppose it could be a (very nicely done) custom job? Or it's just some factory error. I certainly can't find anything on the interwebs that describes a Bertie variant of any kind.

Is there any reference to a relative of sorts to Bertie in any of the shows episodes?

Of course looking at the picture it could just be a really awful photo lol! The lighting is not at all consistent in that shot...
