The model - this is one of two unexpected releases on
19th December 2014, both featuring what appears to be a new casting of
Kowloon Motor Bus's 12 metre, three door Duple Metsec bodied Dennis
Dragon. The other features 3N126 (180102). The absence of KMB logos
leads me to believe these are not licensed models.
The bus
- following
successful trials of KMB's first 3 twelve-metre Dennis Dragons,
a further 188 examples were delivered between November 1983 and
November
1986. These production buses differed from the 3 prototypes in that
they
were fitted with Duple Metsec bodywork which featured a three door
layout.
