NORTHCORD PRESS RELEASE
UKBUS6205 Alexander Dennis Enviro400
National Express West Midlands
Northcord Model Company is proud to release its third model of the ukbus 6200 range on the former CMNL long wheelbase Enviro400 tooling.
This is ukbus 6205, carrying the vintage Birmingham City Transport livery with National Express West Midlands fleetname on the front panel below the windscreen and on the lower rear window.
The model as replicated is National Express West Midlands 4722 (BU07 LGY) on route 18 to Yardley Wood with ‘via Cotteridge’ carried in the front destination.
4722 was new to Perry Barr garage in July 2007. It was repainted into retro Birmingham City Transport livery, including trademark khaki roof, in July 2020 quickly acquiring the Birmingham coat of arms on the side panels along with the gold pinstripe through the blue stripe below the lower saloon windows by the August and named ‘Abigail’ by September 2020.
This is the second NMC model carrying a classic West Midlands livery. The previous one is ukbus 9501 Scania OmniCity double-deck model that replicated 4780 (BU08 EHZ) in West Midlands PTE livery on route to Birmingham. The ukbus 9501 model was launched in August 2023.
ukbus 6205 features excellent detailing, inside and out, such as realistic-looking handpoles and handrails. The Enviro400 model is a one-piece casting whose clean lines accentuate the windows and livery application on which all logos and lettering are clearly legible.
Another main features on the ukbus 6205 is its dual individual tree protectors at the front. The front dome on the model is significant, with its curved windscreens on both upper and lower deck. The ukbus 6205 model replicates all items at the engine room correctly. The headlights at the front are made of individual components to look more realistic.
