PRESS RELEASE 10th July 2009
Sunwin SWB6120KHV-3 - cnbus 1015 Shanghai Ba-Shi / Pudong Goon Chung
Having made the significant success of its cnbus 1014 model, Creative Master Northcord Limited has proudly released its latest example of the newly re-tooled Sunwin model, cnbus 1015. It is carrying the Shanghai Ba-Shi / Pudong Goon Chung livery.
Demonstrating the flexibility of the cnbus 1000 castings, cnbus 1015 incorporates features drawn from both mainstream styles issued to date as well as brand new items.
cnbus 1015 has the original style front, with individual front bumper and one-piece “rabbit ear” style mirrors. The model has two brand new items on the roof. These are a newly designed air-conditioning unit and a ventilation unit towards the rear of the roof. Both items are seen for the first time on cnbus 1000 castings.
cnbus 1015 features bus number SVK-001 (registration ?A-H2499) in service on route 982.
Pudong Goon Chung operated route 982 between Pudong International Airport and Oriental Road in Pudong district in October 2002 at the time Pudong International Airport had more international and regional flights (Hong Kong and Macau) transferred from Hungqiao International Airport. Route 982 was replaced by the new Airport Express Route 7 in May 2004 with new deluxe coaches that have luggage racks on board.
cnbus 1015 features excellent detailing, inside and out. This is a one-piece casting whose clean lines accentuate the windows and application of the famous livery on which all logos and lettering are clearly legible on the paint. The model has no unnecessary metal poles to hold it together.
The cnbus 1015 model is limited to 1000 pieces for worldwide distribution. They will be distributed by John Ayrey Die-Casts Limited (UK), Porte Publishing Company (Japan), Transit Graphics (Australia), cnmycar.com (P.R. China) and Concorde Hobby Shop (HK) respectively.
