pre-production example of this casting appeared at the Hong Kong
Exhibition of the History of Hong Kong Buses held in August 2009.

2009 edition of KMB Today, one in standard white livery and one in pink

full size single deckers, Kowloon Motor Bus took delivery of 168

Fuso MK117J between May 1990 and September 1993. All were fitted with
air-conditioning
and operated a variety of routes. Some featured a luggage area for use
of the airport routes. Several received a pink 'Nathan Shopper' livery
to promote several routes serving Nathan Road. AM155 entered service on
3 May 1993.
