Leyland Olympian No. 105 |
Xtra ... |
In 1994, all these coaches were put into store. Subsequently, 102 (ex-C51) was converted to a driver training vehicle, whilst 105 was extensively refurbished and received a new Alexander 'R type' front in 1995.
With its imminent withdrawal, the Hong Kong Transport Society organised a Farewell Trip on 9th November 2003, starting at Hung Hom KCR station at 10:00am, The journey took in Ocean Park, Aberdeen, Cyber Port, Western District, Admiralty, Kowloon and from there directly to Tuen Mun KMB Depot. The journey then took in Tai Po and Mai Mei Tuk for lunch and returned to the Terminus at Hung Hom KCR station at 4:30pm.
105 was subsequently acquired by Dave Rogers in the UK, who already owns Citybus No 102 and Dave's website can be found at www.daves-ctb-olympians.co.uk
