Following on from the KMB ALX500 bodied Dennis Trident, which took part in the Golden
Jubilee Gold Run at SHOWBUS 2002, our friends at KMB provided
one of the stars of EFE SHOWBUS International 2003. The Volvo Super Olympian B10TL
with Northern Ireland built Wright bodywork has been dubbed "The Wrightbus" at KMB.
The impressive vehicle is seen arriving amongst the early contingent at Duxford, having driven down from
Volvo's at Warwick prior to its journey to the former Crown colony. |

Here the bus is parked up on prominent display to show visitors where it attracted a lot of
favourable attention. The bus was later displayed at the Bus & Coach show. |
|
To add to the Hong Kong flavour, New World First Bus Dennis Condor DM17, now
preserved in the UK was parked nearby. The KMB decker won the prize for the
best overseas entry this year, beating the competition from Germany, Holland and
Miami.
