*Currently Looking for SBS999U* -
Wow - EDS still there leh. But I think its nicer with SBS and SBST livery
-
But i did notice something , the entrance door there is the Sticker for the ''No Standing on Steps'' , just like the ones we see it on SBST Buses , maybe they leave it i guess , hmm
-
hahaz. the stickers (Door cock and no standing on steps are intact)Originally posted by TIB1049L:Wow - EDS still there leh. But I think its nicer with SBS and SBST livery
19m school bus, the kids are lucky man! -
I think it is kept there for some reason - maybe they don't want children standing on it? But overall the bus seems to be intact (as in no modifications done except livery)Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:But i did notice something , the entrance door there is the Sticker for the ''No Standing on Steps'' , just like the ones we see it on SBST Buses -

I dug it - the evidence that SBS998 and SBS999 are there lies at the last lineOriginally posted by SBS1985C:Apparently I think that both Bendys are with Bayes Coachlines.

Next time, I hope to take a photograph of SBS998Y and SBS999U. However the thread was not updated and hence there were no pics on them, but only for the CSS DAFs -
wonder how SBS shipped SBS998 and SBS999 to NZ? dismantle the bus?
-
You answered your own question.Originally posted by Rooky:wonder how SBS shipped SBS998 and SBS999 to NZ? dismantle the bus? I doubt they dismantled the bus. They shipped the bus as a whole. -
Its a legal requirement by the countries(Commonwealth & US) for their heavy vehicles to have indicators lights for road safety especially on their highways at night.Originally posted by QX5216J:its like that. they did that to Semi DD in the US too. hmm. not too sure why. -
This is important as many highway stretches and country roads have no road-side lighting.Originally posted by XiaoTaro:Its a legal requirement by the countries(Commonwealth & US) for their heavy vehicles to have indicators lights for road safety especially on their highways at night. -
Haha! Dude, who has the time to dismantle the bus? It is more likely that they transport the bus as a whole, on a big ship.Originally posted by Rooky:wonder how SBS shipped SBS998 and SBS999 to NZ? dismantle the bus? -
The one beside 998Y on that web should be 999U rite? Coz when i look at it , it has the side signal light which is the same as 999U & the handle of the chair also looks alike as 999u
-
Yea. Now that you pointed that out, even the door c0ck cover on that bus looks like SBS998Y's.Originally posted by swee_heng:The one beside 998Y on that web should be 999U rite?

Think is 999u. Look at the seats. It is almost similar to 999u's.Originally posted by SBS1985C:Yea. Now that you pointed that out, even the door c0ck cover on that bus looks like SBS998Y's. -
