Modelscene 5501 Leyland Olympian Double Decker Bus, London Buses Riverside HO/OO Gauge. The Leyland Olympian entered service with the National Bus Company (N.B.C.) in 1981, as a replacement for the Bristol VRT. Shortly after this, Olympians entered service with many provincial operators. London Transport ordered its' first batch in 1984. Initial batches of the Olympian featured a Leyland chassis, powered by a Gardner 6 LXB engine with an Eastern Carriage Works (E.C.W.) body. Later batches used a Leyland built body and those produced more recently had an Optare built body. Outwardly these three bodies are basically identical and this kit is based on this type of Olympian. They were exported to Greece, Hong Kong. Smooth-rolling wheels allow for easy placement on model railway tracks or display stands. Openable doors add an interactive element to the model and provide a glimpse of the interior. Clear windows offer a view of the interior seating arrangement, further enhancing the model's authenticity. Interior features basic seating and other elements, adding depth to the model. Diecast metal construction ensures durability and a weighty feel.
