© Donald MacRae On a recent visit to Wong Chuk Hang, I was pleased to see the former China Motor Bus depot had received a coat of paint, but a little disappointed that a dull grey paint had been used rather than the original blue, as shown in Donald MacRae's photograph taken over 25 years ago!
On the subject of China Motor Bus, I did manage to spot a rebodied Guy Arab Mk V in Wan Chai 🤣🤣
A visit to Shek-O Bus
Terminus was a must, so here is the proof!

I
am not aware of
any new models being announced during my holiday, so today's update
focuses on some real bus news from Citybus.
The new 'Hop On Hop Off' sightseeing bus livery has been applied to 12 metre ADL Enviro500NG 59907 (SH6325).
Meanwhile, 41098 (UU7247) is one of just three 11.3 metre ADL 'facelift' Enviro500s to receive the new livery. 24th

Today marks the 26th anniversary of this website I find it hard to believe that 26 years have passed since I launched the site and that the models featured in the first month of news are now that old, not to mention the age of the webmaster!!
I remain extremely grateful to everyone who has contributed over the years and special mention must be made to Sindy & Joe of Jotus.com, Mr Kwok of 80M Bus Model Shop, Network Shuttle, Philip Chan, Donald MacRae, Gakei, Grantbus Gallery and last, but not least, my family. 5th
