  I dunno whether u guys got noticed. The newer K230UB seems to have the horn changed? From the loud air horn to the "Beep" kind?

  Oh no...

  That means passengers have to stand throughout the whole journey le, cos 12 pax load quite high.

   

  OT: Yesterday i took 9805L (BNDEP 12) home, its engine was like stuck on 1st gear for around 10 seconds, before moving up. It sounded horrible. Hope it managed to make it to nbr

  If they don't want to stand they can wait for the next bus because there is only 1 crossover KUB on 12.

  Service 48 seems to have already started KUB. Can anyone who knows the perm KUBs for 48 update sgwiki? Off topic question, how is the demand for 48?

  Has anyone wondered if the future 83XX series KUB will get a different bodywork?

  I doubt it, if they really want to cut costs. Because different body would need different spare parts, more expertise etc. = higher cost
  But i still hope they get a different body. imagine if all 500 similar looking buses are on the roads, it would look so...boring
