Mercedes MK lll Bus – Route L20 Parramatta

Mercedes Mark III

After the NSW State Transit Authority sent out a call for more vehicles to add to their fleet, PMC responded with its  Galvatress Mk 111 body that almost replicated the previous Mk 11 with only minor charges like the larger front route numbers. Complimenting the 181 Mk 111’s produced were 30 articulated versions that offered greater passenger capacity on popular routes.

The L20 represents a Limited Stops journey along the 520 Route from Circular Quay to Parramatta. With limited stops, the L20 reduced travel time on the 520 route from the usual 1 hour and 20 minutes to under 50 minutes.

This 1:76 scale diecast model is an amazing example of intricate decoration.
