  I am using my own copy of my ticket so I shall type my example out:
  
  0465 25SE 911 1A 11 2653
  05:56 PA 90c
  
  0465 = TIB465A (in other words it is the rego)
  25SE = 25 September (also known as date)
  911 = Svc. 911 (also known as service no.)
  1A = Direction 1
  11 = Bus Stop no. (or is it Stage no.?)
  2653 = Serial No.
  05:56 = Time
  PA = Price Adult. For children is just a C, but last time they used PC
  90c = Price paid
  
  Used to have 2 more no. beside 90c. One is to show the amount deducted from the farecard (not sure though) and the amount left in the farecard. After the farecard was discontinued, the 2 side no. were gone because got no use at all

  I dont think P is price. Some of my tickets still has PC. It means peak hrs!
  
  Last time during the farecard era, they had TPA, TPC, etc, the T means transfer.

  I believe all that needs to be clarified has been done in the thread, and I will proceed to close this. Pls use the questions thread next time.
