It was a poor trip to KMB - no other passengers except me took route 281M to Kowloon Tong Station. The captain of AVC2 can show its performance without any restraint.
It seems the impact from Tuen Ma Line is more severe on route 281M than its neighbour route 85B. With effect from 11 Oct, 281M will be reduced to two one-way trips at peak hours only.

Number 46S has been used during 1996 to 2014 for the morning special trips from Tai Wai Station to Lai King (North). It was cancelled on 4 Jan 2014 following the reorganisation with another auxiliary route 46P.
Today, route 46S is reborn in newly introduced peak-hour trips between Hin Keng and Tsuen Wan (Nina Tower).
Back to the 1990s, the short-lived route 45X also travelled between the two places, before the opening of Shing Mun Tunnel Bus Interchange and emerged into route 46X as a result. I really miss the days on the Leyland Victories climbing up the Shing Mun Tunnel.

This Ching Ming term has just been over. There will be no service of 56S to Tsang Tsui in the next 5-month period until Chung Yeung Festival.
Unlike the first term in Oct 2020, buses serving 56S are no longer monopolised by E500MMCs. Arguably, the most attractive buses are the new B8Ls and the old E500s.

AVBE50 (MX5357) is the latest Volvo B9TL joining KMB's suspension list. However, recent discussion within KMB is to allow their return to service - because the brand new BYD double-deckers do not fit the license registration schedule.
AVBE50 was also seen with the destination to Chun Yeung Estate on route 85. Sui Wo Court residents still prefer route 85 to 88X as compensation for the service reduction of route 80M, but the TD officials seemed not entertaining their request.

ASV75 and 76 (LR1178 and 1187) are the oldest ASVs yet also the only two under Tuen Mun Depot. It is rumoured that they will be transferred to Lai Chi Kok Depot very soon.
We may not have many chances to see scene like this, unless the weekend parties come again. (You know what I mean?)
