Not just the SBS Transit logos, even the old SBS logos are now covered up on some Scanias. Wonder what is going on. I've seen this happening on BNDEP buses, are there buses from other depots with similar stickers?Originally posted by kitoshizc:Recently found that the SBS Transit logo painted on the sides (the side that has no doors) of the buses is gone. now got white patch. anyone knows why or is this common?

Central buses kinda have it too.. or izzit BNDEP? I think my memory is failing..Originally posted by Superbus:Not just the SBS Transit logos, even the old SBS logos are now covered up on some Scanias. Wonder what is going on.

Cheers and warm regards
the most common situation is actually very simple. The advertising contract for side sticker/ panel advertisements have lapsed or prematurely terminated, so SBST merely covers up the ad with a white sticker/ remove the ad sticker and cover with a white one, while waiting for a new advertisement to come or a permanent paint job to be done.Originally posted by kitoshizc:Recently found that the SBS Transit logo painted on the sides (the side that has no doors) of the buses is gone. now got white patch. anyone knows why or is this common?
Hold it, is that a UK Lance on Sv. 67? At least two buses in Bishan are awaiting ad to be pasted on the side, 222C and 570Y.Originally posted by cck_190:This applies to SMRTA Buses also. I do not know what's going on.
Note that there is a Dennis lance behind the 0405.See more @:

The photo shows that the Lance in the photo is the hottest bus in Singapore.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Hold it, is that a UK Lance on Sv. 67? At least two buses in Bishan are awaiting ad to be pasted on the side, 222C and 570Y.
Hmm... You got a point. However, I saw a ASD 76 with the SBSTransit logo relocated from the centre of the side of the bus to a smaller version near the back of the side of the bus. What I think is that SBS Transit is doing the same for all the single-deckered buses so that in future when there are side or panel advertisements, the advertisement would not cover the SBSTransit logo and the logo will not be affected.Originally posted by sv966:the most common situation is actually very simple.

ASD = Aircon single decker.Originally posted by kitoshizc:whats asd?? hmm..this could be one of the possibilites too..
The small logo at the side is in white, with purple background, correct? IMO, the brand name is still quite distinct, no need to make any special concessions.Originally posted by foxtrot1985:Hmm...

Here has the same cases on Hong Kong Buses, they are so...ugly.....Originally posted by sv966:the most common situation is actually very simple.

It's like seeing a big patch of white on a gold livery, right?Originally posted by sneezelam:Here has the same cases on Hong Kong Buses, they are so...ugly.....![]()
Nope. as far, i haven't met such a crazy case, what i met is just those CityBus was covered by the ad. material with the same colour as the standard livery. and the same cases for the New World First Bus and the KMB(white buses).Originally posted by SBS9818A:It's like seeing a big patch of white on a gold livery, right?
