The model -  the first New Lantau liveried Victory Mk 2 from ABC Models carries the original red and yellow livery and was released in Hong Kong in November 1999. Unfortunately, the model has a spelling mistake in the destination - see below.

The bus - New Lantau Motor Bus Company (1973) Ltd, or NLB for short, purchased 15 Leyland Victory Mk 2s, some being acquired second-hand from Kowloon Motor Bus. The original livery is that shown above, but when the company was acquired by Kwoon Chung Motor Co Ltd in early 1992, several vehicles received a new green and white livery. LD 6 was new to the company in September 1981 and was withdrawn in 1993.
