Buses Stolen in HK
-
Five Kowloon Motor Bus Company buses were stolen from their depots and terminus in the evening of 8th October. Two were driven from Tuen Mun to Kwai Chung (presumably along Tuen Mun Highway, what a big feat!).
On the cable television's TVBJ channel, I only made out one Dennis Dragon 3X and seemingly Leyland Olympian 3X.
Any info from HK friends? -
Kwai Chung???
The port area??? -
Yeah, they were found outside some industrial building as the news show. A KMB employee found them sitting there. One was carrying desto 61M. Did you saw it too?

It's Tuen Mun Service... Hmm...
No I didn't saw it

why the hell would anyone want to steal a bus?
-
Just about the reason why someone would steal a car. Not because you cannot afford it, but its just the enjoyment behind it, not everyone will understand.
Like WLDEP, there might be one day when some bus kenna stolen, as someone reported of them parked outside the depot. -
I think is the China people steal one lah... Go steal then KOPE all the equipment inside and then can sell.
-
The weird thing is, the news reported that nothing was missing. Footage shows the cash box and Octopus system intact on the Dragon.

Probably they stole other more valuable parts... Octopus card reader how to sell?Originally posted by jetabt767400:The weird thing is, the news reported that nothing was missing. Footage shows the cash box and Octopus system intact on the Dragon. -
Maybe one day I found someone who wants a lot of bus tires, then I go WLDEP, steal several bendies, and use a hydraulic jack to get the bus up, steal the tires away?
Good idea!
This is only a example, not my ideal way. I will never steal a bus... -
Hmm, 3 Dennis Dragons, 1 Dennis Trident and one Volvo Olympian were stolen, the dragons are on svc 61M, 47X and 235, trident on 31B and VO on 235M.

Haha, erm, they target the Dragons, old buses, but nice though, I have good experiences with them... -

I think they steal it just for the sake of excitment? May be next they will try to steal the MRTOriginally posted by jetabt767400:Maybe one day I found someone who wants a lot of bus tires, then I go WLDEP, steal several bendies, and use a hydraulic jack to get the bus up, steal the tires away?

Yeah... bus foamer kids inspired by some illegal activity in HK. I wouldn't be surprised... it begins with stealing destos and bus guides, then before you know it, stealing buses! (Possibly exaggerated, but the point still stands).

this is some bootleg topic.

I stole a sweet from a shop just yesterday. The day before i stole a handphone.

Not related to the stolen bus, but there was a serious accident for a 3ASV in HK today. The bus veered onto the pavement and the roof got sliced off by an overhanging concrete shelter. If I remember correctly, 13 people were injured. They are still investigating the cause but it was said that the 3ASV was only 4 years old, the bus driver's rest day was yesterday and the bus had been serviced recently.
You can go to the TVB website for a repeat of its news broadcast. -
have the police made any arrests? Anyway, a bus is so huge. Stealing even one is a great feat.
-
Actually, stealing a bus issnt a big feat, but steal a bus and not being spotted is one huge feat.
anyways, no one caught yet. -
THat was what I meant to say.Originally posted by XiaoTaro:Actually, stealing a bus issnt a big feat, but steal a bus and not being spotted is one huge feat.
