54 and 124 are potential AM/BR candidates to get the K230s. But let's not be excited for now. News will unfold itself one.Originally posted by 5454:n maybe even 54. -
To me I think Service 155 because it pass by Geylang East Poly , maybe the ppl living in Circuit Estate and maybe Marine Parade?

Apex LW'21, if you didn't see it, that's your own problem, you missed this part of the EDS display. Took it on the first day and saw it with my own eyes, how could I not know? -

IMO, this bus is the opposite of the SMRT Scanias. The K230UB is stable when idle but when moving its a whole different story. Sit at the back and you will notice this. (Seatbelts!!! )

most HK buses have seatbelts on upper deck. havin a seatbelt at one seat is just for little insurances.Originally posted by Raraken:IMO, this bus is the opposite of the SMRT Scanias.

I've just noticed a similarity between our Scanias and the Caetano Scania in HK.
Both have the silver plate between the headlights. Is this a Scania front like the Omni-series or would it be an imitation by Gemilang? -
more likely to be 56. passes thru TPY. lot's of oldies there.Originally posted by 5454:n maybe even 54. -
you haven't seen the load on 54, especially on saturdays and sundays. filled with lots of old folks headed to chinatown, temples at river valley etc. more so than 56..Originally posted by nenepokey:more likely to be 56. passes thru TPY. lot's of oldies there.
