The model

of producing KMB's 'Year of ' models. Produced by Cars Workshop,
this new casting features several improvements over the Corgi casting,
the most noticeable being the lack of internal poles and an opening rear
engine cover.

that entered service with KMB between January 1994 and September 1998.

of the Rooster' livery in 2005, having entered service on 7 November 1997.
