 Feedback or contributions? Send me an email  Page last updated Sunday, August 7, 2005 For more information on these and other diecast products from India, I would recommended Issue 6 and 7 of Diecast Collector, which ran several articles on Indian diecast toys. |
  Milton,
also known by several other names (including Morgan Milton as well as
Miltan), was a company in India that used old UK dies to create a wide
range of diecast vehicles. As a general rule, quality was much lower than
that of the originals. That said, Milton produced an interested range
of RMs in a range of colors and wheel/tire types. I just don't know anything
more. |

 This picture shows a light blue and white variant. |
 A very nice blue Milton Routemaster. It's interesting to note that the "clippie" in the back didn't make the trip from the UK to India! |
 Notice any family resemblance between the Milton Routemaster and the Corgi 468 casting? |

 Despite the buses themselves being copies, Milton did produce some nice artwork for their bus boxes. |
 Another example of the artwork found on the packaging. |
 Here's a collection of three different Milton models, each with different color schemes and wheel types. I have no idea how many color variations they produced, but I suspect that it was more than a few. |
