| The Drumwell KMB non air-conditioned Dragon
(DW10202)
was released in Hong Kong today.

The recent Collector's Model Leyland Victory (V201B) carries all-over advertising for "Soy Sauce", and is limited to 500 models. Expected to be released in mid March is this
New World First Ferry, at a scale at 1:300, and produced by Arko Model
Co.
Totally unrelated to model buses is this Corgi 1/43 scale Police Ford Transit - It just looked good!!

Announced on this site on 14th February was
the KMB non air-conditioned Dragon, and I have just received photographs
of a pre-production sample. It is a Drumwell model, believed to be Fleet
No. S3N 303, on route 73x. Further photos can be viewed here.
An unexpected release today in Hong Kong is a Collector's Model Victory Mk 2 (assumed to be KMB with lack of fleetname) in an all-over advertising livery. I have no other details of this model at present - so if anyone can oblige, I would me most grateful! 22nd

MBE's China Paint Dragon was released in Hong Kong yesterday, HOWEVER, is there to be a second version? The model released features Fleet No. 855, on Route No. 182 to City One Shatin, in a quantity of 1,000. Is there to be a second version, perhaps featuring Fleet No. 838, also on Route No. 182, but with a destination of "Not in service", and with a quantity of 500? A case of déjà vu!!!!! The New World First Bus Centroliner, expected later this month or early next, is believed to feature Fleet No. 6008. 16th
