| The model
- Corgi's original intentions were to allocate product codes 43211 and
43212 for two Long Win Bus models, these representing 11-metres vehicles,
which carried a slightly different liveries to their 12-metre counterparts
(see 43208).
This model is a pre-production example of
what was planned to be 43212. This model was scheduled for release in June
1998, but owing to problems, believed to be related to licensing problems
from Long Win Bus, it was never released.
The product number 43212
was eventually used for the second of three New World First Bus Volvo Olympians.
The bus
- Long Win's 11-metre buses carried either white/orange/red or just white/red
liveries. This model is based on Long Win Bus registration number HH1412,
the fleet no. is KMB AV239. KMB loaned 5 Volvo Olympian 11-metre air-conditioned
buses to Long Win Bus, these being AV238-AV242. |
