Hong Kong Transport - Buses | All types

 

The Hong Kong Bus Culture

 

The number of buses registered + licenced in Hong Kong seems to fluctuate between 18,000 - 22,000 vehicles and presumably new buses registered are offset by old buses being retired or sold over the border in China. (Source - The Transport Department, Hong Kong Government)

 

Bus services in Hong Kong have to be amongst the best of all major cities in the World.

 

All major Hong Kong Bus Companies invest heavily and are using mainly brand new double decker buses and all of them are testing and introducing single and double decker 100% electric buses and also hydrogen powered buses for future use.

 

☛Major Franchised Bus Companies in Hong Kong

 

Citybus | Cityflyer ✚ Kowloon Motor Bus | KMB ✚ Long Win Motor Bus | LWB ✚ New Lantao Bus | NLB ✚ HZMB ✚ Note : New World First Bus | NWFB merged with Citybus in 2022

 

☛Non - Franchised Public Bus Services using double decker and single decker buses (feeder services)

 

Mass Transit Railway | MTR ✚ DBTS - Lantau Island ✚ Park Island Transport Co. Ltd.

 

☛All Major Franchised Public Minibus Services (PLB) seating 16 or 19 people

 

Franchised and Non Franchised Public Light Bus Red Top ✚ Franchised Public Light Bus Green Top

 

☛Privately Owned Buses

 

Toyota seems to be the preferred brand for privately owned small and medium sized buses and are used for the following purposes

 

Public and Private Rehab Buses ✚ Commercial Building Buses ✚ Resident Services Buses ✚ Travel and Tour Buses ✚ Contract Hire ✚ School Buses ✚ Hotel Buses ✚ Misc. Buses for any type of charter | hire too numerous to mention including cross border buses.

 

One of the largest privately owned companies is Kwoon Chung Bus Company who also offer Non Franchised and Franchised Bus Services through it‛s subsidiary New Lantao Bus

 

☛Many Hong Kong Government Departments have a fleet of buses but for some reason also contract hire from Private Bus Companies on an “as needed” basis.

 

Any Government OWNED and operated vehicle in this section (such as Correctional Services Buses, Police Buses etc ) have a licence plate starting AM and any Chinese Military Vehicle has a licence plate starting ZG and naturally some of these vehicles have personalized licence plates which they buy at Government Auction!

hello makati.

 

we visited our unit at the Luna Towers @ Rockwell earlier. I guess it'll be a while before I can take shots like these again. by next week, the new tenant will be moving in. Too bad I didn't have an DSLR then when we used to frequent our place there. The view was to die for. Specially if you fall off the balcony!

 

This one has a greenish hue because i shot thru the tinted glass.

Apologies and appreciations to Charles Demuth.

My friend Anna found this number on her Unoa Lite, so I checked over mine and I found number 5 over the boy and number 28 over the girl. Is this a serial number, a production check number or anything else?

Found on a hedge but not by the person who lost it.

St. Stephen's Church, previously known as the New North Church, in Boston's North End was built between 1802 and 1804. The architect was the renowned Charles Bulfinch, who also designed the Massachusetts State House. Originally Congregationalist, it transitioned to Unitarian and in 1862 was acquired by the Catholic Diocese of Boston when it was renamed St. Stephen's. By the mid-19th century, a significant number of Irish Catholic immigrants had settled in the North End. Rose Kennedy (mother of JFK) was baptized in this church in 1890 and her funeral took place here in 1995. A significant structural restoration was done in the mid-1960s. The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
