Sadly,
the 80M Bus Model
Shop in the historic Western Market in Sheung Wan, a
Grade I listed heritage site, closed its doors yesterday. The whole
market is closing at the end of this week for a two-year
renovation project,
requiring all tenants to vacate. I was fortunate to visit the shop, after hours, during my visit last November, and here are a few of my memories! My thanks, as always to Mr Kwok of 80M Bus Model Shop for not only inviting me to his shop, but also for his 25 years of supporting this site by sending me quality photographs.
Released in Hong Kong 25 years ago today is this China Motor Bus Leyland Titan PD3 from Corgi (41908).
Kowloon Motor Bus today registered its third ADL Enviro500EV, this being AED8 (WC3739). 27th May 2025
