1) SMB240J with exposed rear SMRT livery...
2) TIB447C using paper rear desto. Bus was on 187S105..was a nice bus with great aircon, not bouncy also means spring is ok unlike 546A. A pity this bus will be de-registered in less than 10 days from now.
3) TIB492X on 187 today using paper rear desto too!
4) SBS6341C on 335 with front desto in front...EDS working fine.
