Leyland/Volvo Olympian 3-axle double-deck bus with Alexander Royale bodywork
(Air-con)
(scale 1/76 - 11 metre length)

This model, prduced by Corgi, is a scale 11 metre length, although on several of the models, Corgi have re-arranged the window spacing by adding a small window in both upper and lower decks, thus attempting to create a 12 metre version. Several of the prototype vehicles also carry Alexander R type bodywork, as opposed to the Royale type. The model has a single front entrance door, with double exit doors.

* Model No 43219 is a revised casting with double doors at front and centre.
