Hmmm....I can only tell at least 1 LO.The one with black ad should be a VO batch II/III. There's also another VO also....but the one burnt to the chassis is definitely an LO.
Anyway, the damage is so great, its all guess-work. The bodies were melted.

doubt is electrical fault..
could be due to leaking fuel somewhere & a spark just ignited the fuel.. -
Sad for these DDs. No SD involved right?
-
i suspect it's foul play or some idiots just got nothing better to do. Create arson
-
the B9 seems to be fixable.
-
confirmed that SBS9888Y is the VSO affected.

they got to work extra hard for the batch 2 B9s to replace these damaged buses.. -

they got to work extra hard for the batch 2 B9s to replace these damaged buses..considering theres about 15 yrs of lifespan left, i have an inkling that they might fix it. anyway the damage looks less serious than the LO and VO.
with the info that 9888Y was involved, i have a feeling that the buses are (mostly, if not all) sv25 buses.
