So glad to see the May release date, priced the same as the Classic Metal Works Greyhounds. Will be getting a few of these.

They both look very nice.

I think the CMW “Big Grey Dog” looks a lot closer to the ones I used to see and ride back in the 50s. The Athearn one looks like someone sat on it. [:)]

The Athearn model is a FLXIBLE VisaCoach(IIRC) from the 50’s. The Classic Metal Works bus is a GM PD 4103 built for Greyhound in the early 50’s. Both model look very accurate when comparing them to prototype photos. Jim Bernier
