  Hi, I was wondering if any of you have pictures on these following bus models during mid-90s:
  
  Double-Deck Non-aircon Volvo bus (Has a twin engine meshed box at the front, in the middle of the headlights; the front or rear door has this unusual long/oval window; mid-way thru the stairway between the 2 decks there is this little small window)
  
  Double-deck non-aircon Vovlo bus (Has 3 engine meshed box at the front between the headlights)
  
  air-con single deck volvo bus; has a quite high rear bumper and a little meshed engine bos beside the rear right taillight.
  
  These 3 models are quite special as there are only 1 of each of them in Singapore before the superbus era.
  
  Let me know if I can find the pics of them anyway, thanks.

  SBS 4741U, the B55 Ailsa fits the first one. The second one seems to be SBS 4961B, the B10MD. I could be mistaken about these two, but the last one is SBS 9C, the VanHool bodied B10M.

  No. They reached the statutory age of 12 years (before it became 15 years) and were phased off. They should be sold off to other countries.

  All of them were gone by 1997-1998 if I'm not wrong.
