The model - this new casting was announced in September 2016 and two models were released on 26th of that month, the other being BH3719 on route 246 (KLE16019).  

The bus - KMB introduced 100 Duple Dominant bodied Albion EVK55CL coaches in 1975-76. These were equipped with a comfortable 2 + 2 seating arrangement to serve the Kai Tak airport and leisure coach routes at that time. In view of the decline in the demand for leisure coach travel and with the introduction of new air-conditioned single-deck buses on airport routes, these coaches were retired in 1990.
