NORTHCORD MODEL COMPANY - PRESS RELEASE
The following press release and photographs have been received this morning from the Northcord Model Company:
UKBUS6539 ADL Enviro400H MMC - East London Ambassador
Northcord Model Company is pleased to announce the release of UKBUS6539, the eighth release of the 10.3 metre, 2-door casting of this distinctive, modern, double-decker in the United Kingdom.
The eighth livery to be carried on the brand-new Alexander Dennis Enviro400H MMC model, is Stagecoach London, produced in distinctive East London Ambassador livery.
UKBUS6539 represents fleet number 12400 (YX16OHS) that has 10.3 metre, dual-door bodywork and was new to Stagecoach London in July 2016. 12400 has a Euro6 hybrid driveline. The model carries the roof fleet number SCG 12400.
To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Barking Bus Garage, Stagecoach London repainted Enviro400H MMC 12400 into a traditional London Transport livery, similar to that worn on the Leyland Titans and other classic London buses. 12400 had debuted on Saturday 23rd March 2024, at an open day held at Barking Bus Garage which marked its century in that year.
12400 is based at Stagecoach London’s Barking Garage where it operates on busy route 145. 12400 carries the route 145 destination heading to Fair Cross with Barking Bus Garage in the lower line of the destination.
The stand-out features on the 12400 are: “East London Ambassador”, “Celebrating 100 years of Barking Bus Garage” on both sides and “Stagecoach” with ‘beach-ball’ logo on all sides.
The Alexander Dennis Enviro400H MMC UKBUS6539 is a one-piece casting whose clean lines accentuate the square-cornered, patented quick-release windows of the real bus and the livery application on which all logos and lettering are clearly legible. Another main feature on the UKBUS6539 model is its individual tree protector at the front. The front dome on the model is significant, with curved windscreens on both upper deck and lower deck.
Northcord Model Company is also creating new design standards within the interior of both saloons. These features, inside the compartments, will represent the real, outstanding layout of the Enviro400H MMC, such as the extensive portrayal of handrails on upper deck and lower deck, etc.
