  SBS6772S (ARBP 123) whole interior using cool white (colour-wise) lighting instead of the regular warm white lighting... Not sure if LED or fluorescent tubes though, but should be the only unit with full cool white interior lighting. Correct me if this is also seen on the newer Citaros...

  What if I told you that the 0, 4 and 6 thousand series are the series that have been fully used? The other series have numbers that have never been used before.

  Could be a trial. The newer ones are still using the standard warm lightning. I still prefer the warm lightning as always, provides a nicer ambience.

  Can confirm that SBS6866E onwards are Batch 3 Citaros. Boarded SBS6866E and noticed some differences to the earlier Batch 1 and 2 buses.

  Differences observed:
  1. Identical patterned flooring throughout the bus (on Batch 1 and 2 the raised flooring uses a different pattern).
  2. Interior floor engine covers now have a thick border surrounding it.
  3. Lower half of interior glass panels are no longer frosted, but now full black.

  Also no DDU is installed. Gearbox is still a Voith and engine still sounds the same.

  Shot onboard SBS6559S today:
