The
model -
this is
one of
several Citybus liveried Jonckheere bodied Volvo B12s released
by
Brilliant Buses (aka B&B) in
September 2024. It
is an unlicensed model and only a small
number of each variation were actually issued owing to licensing
problems. If you know of any other variants that I
have not listed, do please e-mail
me. My
thanks to Neo Cheung
for notifying me of this variant and for allowing me to share his photograph.

The bus
- Citybus
registered five Jonckheere Monaco bodied Volvo B12 coaches on 29th
March 1996, allocating them the fleet numbers 2001-2005. They were
originally destined for a Japanese operator, but the sale fell through
and Volvo offered them to Citybus for a reduced price. They were used
to operate cross-border services from Hong Kong to Shenzhen, Dongguan
and Guangzhou.
Further information and photographs of the actual vehicles can be found
