In June 2013, Citybus withdrew eight of its Cityflyer liveried Duple Metsec Dennis Tridents,
these to be acquired by Kwoon Chung Motors
.

Four of the eight ex-Cityflyer Kwoon Chung Dennis Tridents were used on two private hire duties on 24th January 2014. HU 1416 and HU 4937 were deployed on a chartered route from Belvedere Garden in Tsuen Wan to Kwun Tong Swimming Pool. Only HU 1416 was spotted on the return journey during that afternoon. Meanwhile, HU 1057 and HV 7107 were deployed on another chartered service running from Tseung Kwan O to Pak Tam Chung. Both of them were believed to have only been used in the morning inbound trip.

All of these four Kwoon Chung liveried Dennis Tridents are still under Citybus's non-franchised bus fleet at this stage, as their PSLs have not been transferred to Kwoon Chung Motors yet. Both of the private hire duties were handled by Citybus, with Citybus bus captains being deployed on all of these four Tridents.

Update 25th January 2014 - it is confirmed that the buses used for this work are still owned and operated by Citybus.
