There’s a buzz recently on popular Singapore forums, Hardwarezone and SgForums on the sighting of a new bus by public transport operator SMRT.

More photos on the various links above.

In a separate but similar news, the same bus has also been spotted without the SMRT decal.

Netizens have identified the bus as a Zhongtong LCK6112G.

SMRT has yet to make a press announcement/release on its possible acquisition.

What do you think? Is it a Zhongtong bus like it is claimed to be?

Jan 1st 2010. A date which for better or worse signals the end of an era of television programming on our public transportation system. TVMobile, Mediacorp’s mobile television network, has ceased its broadcast at 12am this morning.

While no more television programming will be shown on the display units, there is still potential for other kinds of information like, arrival time, weather and other non-intrusive data. What do you think? What kind of information would you like to see on your daily bus commute?
