(NSW) MKIII Merc O305 paperbus.

Post by STA 1440 »

Well, for a change, I figured I'd have a go at a bus other than the ones in SA. So I chose to do a paper model of a Sydney MKIII Mercedes.

Nice work B58 Howler ! It could pass as a MKIII Merc also because of the 4 part sliding windows fitted :P

If anybody really does want one, there may be a while to wait, as I'm probably going to release all my paper buses later on this year.

So hang in there, and sooner or later you'll have your own MKII or 50 sitting on your shelf :lol:

Thanks for your support,
B58 Howler :wink:

Sounds good to me. Put me down for a couple. I'd like to number them m/o.2345 & m/o.2451 in memory of our last STA ones in regular service.

I'll probably start a topic later in the year in regards to who wants what sort of bus in which Liveries.

When I eventually open that topic, you'll all be able to 'place' orders for whatever paper bus you want, so theres no need to ask for what models you want at this current time. :wink:

Cheers. :)

It is indeed a MkIII ror 2272. It also has a MkIII drivers window (which was also fitted to overhauled 1s and 2s)

Hence why I've really only stuck to Adelaide buses, as there are plenty of different models of STA buses! :lol: :wink:
