  Got those 16 seater Kia Asia midi buses around, those simply look horrendous. Or you can always count those Kia Pregios used as passenger vans as buses, cos legally they are Private Buses.

  How about did 198/272 xover earlier and then the bus just came out going to arbp to park overnight?

  
  hmm, yesterday it only did 198.. 198/272 x-over only on weekdays peak, not weekends. Saw it in the mornings, not at night.

  Strong meh?

  If strong we won't keep hearing "krack krack krack" when the bus is subjected to turns.

  Same thing with the Volgren bodied VSOs.

  krack krack sound is because of SBST liao. They maintain the buses, so if there's anything loose, it's their maintainance problem. They've alr been on the roads for at least 10yrs.

  SBS8557B SBS8578Z SBS8580R
  
  BNDEP SP > BNDEP 10

  SBS8588U SBS8591J SBS8597T
  
  BNDEP SP > AMDEP SP
  
  I think 8588, 8591 and 8597 will be deployed either on 25 or 76.

  Anyway, why do SBST skip numbers?
