This was due to the addition of a bit about the B9TL. The modifications are for the local Singaporean market.

still a bit expensive..

the singapore bus handbook by a hongkong guy, retailed for $16. its is about 0.7cm thick, full coloured, but $16 still a bit steep..

some fully coloured books can go for about $5-$10

I think NLB may order 1 copy of the SG Buses Vol 2, just like the previous Vol 1.

Well, according to my bus fans friend in HK, Dennis Chans book is good, (however it's only current info, most of the time...) if u need detail historical info and spec, Mike Davis's book is the one to go for.

For your info, this book is not readily available in local bookstores. Should one wants it, he/she has to contact the publisher from UK.

Bulk orders would be better because one can gets more discounts, and shipping fee can be reduced.
