Also applies to TPY feeder services 232 and 238.Notice that some BRBP Scania K230UBs have thin number displays too (like those displays service 100 and 174 had in the beginning).

Already the venerable CRBs have started seeing their end in sight.Many buses have seen their era come and gone. I will not forget the Merc DDs, whose SD cousins are still proving useful as private charter buses in Oz.
Anyway, SBST maciam si bei pantang sia. All rego numbers ending with 4 kena rejected or something?
SBST is sibei hum ji in this matter.they dont want the fellow 4X registered scanias to end up in the same fate as SBS8074K which the rego also ends in a 4.so the regos ending with 4X after the accident are still not registered. -

The day the remaining x4s are registered is the day 8074K has been repaired. -

Wait and see.. I'm just guessing. Worst case scenario is register beyond 8533C. -
My friends say the new font are good! Easier to tell now..

It's pointless, illogical, and stupid - and a business running on such stupid illogical supersitions is bound to end up in the ground someday.
Seriously, just because of an accident, they start skipping numbers like that? What if the bus involved in the accident was SBS 8078A, SBS 8178U or SBS 8888D instead? Start skipping the 8's? Or just see it as a fluke? And what about all the other buses that end in the digit 4? Aren't they running fine and well? Are they actually blaming the accident on a single digit? Do they realise that this skipping of numbers is going to cause headaches later on?

Lol.. Cos '4' in chinese is 'die', and '8074' in chinese is 'guarantee you will go and die'.

Ah some interesting things that you might want to note, in 'higher class' public transport like aircraft and ships, they would likely get a rename or re-registration after a serious accident.
Taking 8074K as an example, for a company which practices the re-registration procedure, it would have a different number when it comes out to service again. Just that Singapore has those COE and stuff, it would be costly to register the vehicle again (counting that it can be done)!
Hong Kong's KMB ATR101 was re-registered (HZ6751 to NG6783) after 'recovering' from a accident that also cost two lives.

It's an Asian culture thing I suppose. It's much worse in Hong Kong and Taiwan. If you remember, the Taipei crash of SQ006, after the crash, SQ removed the special livery from the other B744. I personally don't have a problem with this, so long as the company is successful and not in the red.
