TIB872H was actually a trial bus by TIBS. The rear EDS used to show messages like " Please Give Way..." and on top of that, there is actually an announcement system onboard which used to played announcments like "Welcome Onboard Trans Island Bus Service.." (Eng and Chinese) and "Please Move to the Rear.." (Eng and Chinese). The announcement system was still being used by the SL when i boarded the bus something early this yr.Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:TIB872H uses red EDS at the rear , seems to be quite odd...
