On Monday, 7th May 2012 Kowloon Motor Bus announced that its routes 5A, 16, 93K and 98 would be converted to full air-conditioned services with effect from Wednesday, 9th May. Tuesday, 8th May was therefore the last day of non air-con operation. I am grateful to Alex Cheng, Michael Ching, Wallace Shek Siu Ki and S3N92 for allowing me to use their excellent photographs. Owing to the sheer number of photographs offered, for which I am extremely grateful, it would be impossible to upload all of these, so please accept my apologies if your photos do not appear.
