| The model
- details of this model came to light on 27th January 2007 - the model
having been released on 25th January. Any further information about it
would be most welcome.
The bus
- KMB took delivery of a batch of 50 Tilling-Stevens during 1947/8. They
differed from the batch of 108 ordered by China Motor Bus in several ways,
the most noticeable being the sliding gate entrance and exit. Others included
the window arrangement, KMB's had sliding windows whilst CMB opted for
up/down windows. Many of KMB's examples featured a 'bull-bar' at the front,
as featured on this model. The last examples were withdrawn from service
in 1966/7.
The above information has been extracted
from Mike Davis's
excellent book Hong
Kong Buses - Kowloon Motor Bus.
