Variation Summary
Choosing one for your collection
Look at the orange wheel detailing for rubbing and the blue roof corners for chips. Inspect the fine airline lettering in a sharp side photograph.
Do not confuse this with the later blue City bus, which has red windows and C Bus graphics.
Collector questions
Is every blue Ain’t Fare the airport shuttle?
No. HCX00 has HW Airlines decoration and dark windows. The City five-pack version has C Bus graphics and red glazing.
