The model -
this model carries New World First Bus livery on the nearside and
Citybus livery on the offside. It is presented to retiring members of
the companies. The destination, in Chinese, reads Honourable,
Retirement, Happy. It is not generally available.
In March 2021 Chow
Ka-Yan allowed me to share his photographs of the
actual model.
Update - 4th July 2025
Following
the demise of New World First Bus brand in July 2023, the retirement
model clearly had to change and in early July 2025 I came across a
couple of examples of the new model, one on a Hong Kong based selling
site, the other on a UK selling site. The new model features a Wrights
Gemini 3 bodied Volvo B8L in the new Citybus yellow and blue livery.
The registration reads 'Thank You' and it has no fleet
number. The destination reads 'Happy Retirement' in Chinese. I
can confirm the product code of this new model as being 63636, and a
new page has now been added.
