Daimler Type D

KMB (Kowloon Motor Bus) route 9 from Tsim Sha Tsui to Choi Hung.

 

I was born in 1971 and the Daimler Type "D" double-decker was a common scene in the 1960s and 1970s in Hong Kong

 

This model is made by a company called Cars Workshop, which specialises/ specializes in Hong Kong buses.

 

The three yellow bands in the front of the bus indicates that this bus only has one conductor, and boarding was allowed from the front-door only. Prior to the change, apparently passengers must board from the rear door.
