  Hello, i don't know if anybody remembers but the rear sv number display, i believe, SBS and Tibs once shared the same colours, right? If my memory serves me right, Red and Blue were colours chosen to distinguish between a ac and non ac sv. Then, SBS decided to implement red colour rear no display while Tibs decided on green. I suppose it was to match their buses interior or something.

  Yeap. When the rear displays first started off, both companies uses red and blue. It was only until some years later that SBS and TIBS changed their colours.

  Some services still use the old blue/red colour schemes. Some Sv. 130 buses have them.
