  Can I hv the Regos of the B1? Btw, look out if they have white rims or clean rims, this may mean that it is going to be scrap soon

  157 is dual depot controlled by SLBP and BRBP. BBDEP does not controlled 157.

  I think it should be another VO3x instead, unless something is wrong here.

  If they faster scrap all those old buses and maintain KUBs,Citaros and B9TLs im pretty sure the maintenance parts could be save even more.Old buses spare parts are expensive and worst to worst had to be customised and fabricate.

  Why is the bus scrapped almost one year after de-registration?

  9214S (which de-regs in Jan 2013) is probably awaiting de-reg, subbed by random buses for these 2 weeks.
