Interior details of a Jit Luen bodied Volvo B6LE

The pictures were taken on 2 June 2000 in 1357 (HV5716). This page shows the driver's cab details.

All Citybus buses have Octopus machine and casher, devices for collecting fare. The passenger places his Octopus farecard on the machine. The green light lits if the transaction is valid. The yellow light and green lights lit if it is a concession farecard. The red lamp shines for negative value/counterfeit card. The monitor shows the remaining fare and the fare required for the journey.

At the driver's side there is another monitor showing the route number, direction, and the fare collecting details. The driver enters the correct fare before the journey starts. When the bus enters the depot, the driver has to press "ENTER" button to transmit the transaction details through the antenna to the server of the control centre.

This is the dashboard of the B6LE.
