UKBUS6207A Greater Manchester Transport Alexander Dennis Enviro400 19470 (MX58VBL) retro livery. New to Stagecoach in 2008 it had received heritage Greater Manchester Transport livery of orange and white with brown skirt to commemorate 200 years of buses in Greater Manchester and 50 since Greater Manchester PTE succeeded Selnec PTE. Its first use after repainting was on 8th June 2024 on Parklife event shuttles to Heaton Park. Reregulation of bus service in Greater Manchester was completed on 5th January 2025 with the rollout of the third tranche of franchising. Stagecoach continues to operate as a provider within the fully-franchised Greater Manchester bus system, taking on the yellow livery of the Bee Network. Alongside buses in other commemorative liveries, 19470 was used on 4th January 2025 from Hyde Road depot in the hours leading to the handover, and thereafter became a training vehicle based at Little Hulton. The bus carries full Greater Manchester Transport livery, including the big 'M' with 'Greater Manchester Transport' wordings on both sides, and '19470 HE' on the front and the rear. It 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 feature 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 headlights at the front are made of individual components to look more realistic.  UKBUS6207B GMS Buses (Manchester) Alexander Dennis Enviro400 19532 (MX09KTT) retro livery. 19532 was new to Stagecoach in 2009. Stagecoach Manchester had painted 19532 in the orange, white and brown livery with dark grey window surrounds on both decks and blue GMS Buses fleetnames in the third quarter in 2024. Greater Manchester Buses South Limited was incorporated on 12th May 1993 to acquire the bus operations in South and East Manchester which had been part of GM Buses since 1986, and it adopted the fleet name GMS Buses. GMS was one of two companies formed to prepare for privatisation following the 1985 Transport Act. GMS was sold to a partnership of employees from 1st April 1994 and continued as such until 29th February 1996 when it was acquired by the Stagecoach Group and became Stagecoach Manchester. The livery on 19532 commemorates the short period of employee ownership. Stagecoach continues to operate as a provider within the fully-franchised Greater Manchester bus system, taking on the yellow livery of the Bee Network. Alongside buses in other commemorative liveries, 19532 was used on 4th January 2025 from Hyde Road depot in the hours leading to the handover, and thereafter became a training vehicle based at Little Hulton then. 19532 carries full GMS Buses livery, including 'HE' code at the front and the rear for Hyde Road depot, together with the circle showing 'HYDE ROAD DEPOT' on the first window in the nearside and below the cab window in the offside. The blue 'GMS Buses' with 'A STAGECOACH SUBSIDIARY' is carried on both sides, on the front panel below the drivers’ windscreen, on the upper front screen and on the rear, upper emergency exit. The model 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 feature on the model 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 following models relate to the old EFE company |
 "Coming soon" was a new casting announced at SHOWBUS 2009 - the Alexander doubledecker. Many casting variations were expected, including dual door but it was a non-starter as EFE concentrated on re-issuing previous models with different destinations and registrations. Illustrated is former Alexander (Midland) MRF120 (SMS120P) a Daimler Fleetline undergoing restoration at the Scottish Vintage Bus Museum in August 2009, photo by Dave Reid. |
 A 1/24th scale model of the RF was announced at SHOWBUS 2007, the patterns were shown at SHOWBUS 2008 but the project was also still born. |
 EFE announced a new modern vehicle casting at SHOWBUS 2006 and gave the details in 2007 of the new East Lancs Olympus double and singledeckers. Uncertainties at East Lancs/Optare delayed commissioning of the model since branded the Optare Olympus and has since emerged as the integral MetroCity. In the meantime TTC announced the model to be introduced into their new range at TTC SHOWBUS 2011 but that too has stalled, with their Spectra and Versa models a long time in gestation and these projects have since passed to Jotus with whom TTC were working. |
For Sinsheim a model of London Transport Country area RML2306 (CUV306C) was produced with blinds set for Sinsheim.
