SMB60L on "BLANK EDS" (KJDEP 307)
At 518pm, BC and Maintenance Guy were checking out the rear side of this bus at the parking lot of CCK Interchange, should be gearbox failure or something like that.
Should be on Perm 307 today. TIB950R believed to be breakdown cameo. Back sticker of TIB950R shows 927, probably yesterday's cameo as it is not on 927 today, with 4 other buses plying the route, namely TIB512Y, TIB689X, TIB714G and TIB948Z. -

Actually tbh it's likely they could just remove i.e. fuse to disable the circuit. Wait till inspection time put it back for e test.Tat's for all we may know.

Its not like public operators who can earn just based on doing public transport. You have heard of SBS bus drivers being penalised for being early, but do you know that if a private bus turns up late, they will be penalised by their customer?

Suspect TIB538Z got into accident at the back days ago. It came out today with full new back like TIB582U.
