  One random question:
  
  Anybody still remember the time when the last Harry Potter movie was shown here? At that time, they turned a VO3X Batch III bus into a Knight Bus from the movie to promote that movie; does anyone know which was the bus that got the magical treatment? Which route.depot was it from, and where is it now?

  During that time its Service 111(SBS 9611D).
  
  Now its perm 165.

  Apparently, yes, but not after some 'de-magicalising' :

  Thank You.
  
  I would also like to ask all SG Bus Fans living in Bedok and those who went to Bedok yesterday evening and today whether SBS 0067J (229 BNDEP) did overnight parking at Bedok North Bus Interchange. When I was there yesterday evening, I saw this bus apparently left abandoned even after when I left the interchange. Today morning, when I returned to the interchange to take more bus photos (with my small 4 year old Minolta digital camera), I saw the bus left at the same place again! I thought it was left overnight.
  
  SBS 9304R on Service 168 yesterday had been towed to either BNDEP or BRBP to conduct maintainence checks.

  Hi,
  
  Today i was on SV77, TIB 591. The bus was a 0405 with Hispano bodywork. However, the bus engine sounded really like the Hino with Volgren bodywork.
  So my question is, does anyone know why? Different engine? or gearbox again?

  Not very sure though. The last time I took (back in Q3 2006) was 354E. More clarifications are needed from others.
