Bedford Trucks from Airfix

Well if you watch “Appoinment in London” with Dirk Birgarde about a Lancaster Bomber pilot getting close to his mission quota you can see the Bedford Troop carrier dropping off multiple Lancaster crews. So yes the troop transporter were used for crew dispersal

Was that the one the bins fell off as the whole air force legged it out to welcome Dirk Bogarde back home…?

There’s an example in RAF colours at the Muckleborough Collection.

Hello again,

http://www.wonderlandmodels.com/products/airfix-176-bedford-ql-trucks/

Would these trucks have found themselves on WW2 RAF Bomber Airfields and if so what configurations and colours would they have worn.

Looking for a suitable truck that would transport an lanc crew to dispersal.

Regards,

H.
