  大批巴士迷昨到車站�照留念，或�巴士河緬懷舊巴士風采。從事速��務的馮先生，特別從屯門�「熱狗�到市�，指「熱狗�有其�愛的一�，如車資較空調巴士便宜三分之一，儘管�天暑熱，但當「熱狗�上了屯門公路便一路清風�爽，生風�入車廂，別有一番滋味。

  馮�言很想�有一輛「熱狗�巴士，奈何沒有地方安置�維修費也�便宜，�能收集一些零碎紀念�，如「熱狗�的收費表等留念。

  �一�巴士迷許�學也特別從屯門�「熱狗�出市�，他指空調巴士�但車資貴，天熱時若空調�夠，�在焗�內，冬天有時空調太�，� �雪房般，希望�巴至少留一架「熱狗�營�，滿足巴士迷和市民懷舊。他�指，�巴的59Ａ全�改空調時，有�供車票優惠，今次沒有票價優惠，�市民�公 平。

  質疑藉���諮詢

  �外，網上有巴士迷質疑，�巴先在�月把全部改用空調巴士行走沙田，本月份輪到屯門，是藉��議會因�舉而暫��作的時機，��諮詢地�。

  I'll try to do a summarised version.

  Basically, the background of the story is that the last remaining NAC VO3x running Rt. 66 (Tai Hing Estate, Tuen Mun < - > Dragon Center, Sham Shui Po) is retiring from the roads. These are the last NACs plying on Tuen Mun highway. So similarly to what we do, many bus fans gathered at the terminals to take photos, and take a joyride on the two buses to enjoy the cold breeze on tuen mun highway.

  The incident is due to one of the passengers reporting to the captain that the Motor Vehicle License (example license) of the bus was missing. So the captain contacted hq and soon the bus was declared off service, with another bus (aircon i presume) sent to pickup the passengers. KMB is investigating the loss of the license, and has not reported to the police.

  Some commented that the NACs are cheaper to ride on (1/3 less), and theres always cool breeze to enjoy.

  In another news, it is reported that a driver's license have been stolen from a NAC bus. The same bus was also recorded a day ago by a group of teens while parked at a bus terminus and this group of teens suspeciously opened the window of the NAC bus, and streched his hand into the bus captain's seat. This has been reported to the police for followup to investigate if the events are linked.
