The bus is nothing more than a mediocre form of public transport, but in the eyes of bus fans, every detail inside and outside the bus fascinates them.
Bus fan Zheng Weihong said that from the overall design of the body, to the passenger seat, the driver's seat, and even the windshield, registration number, and even the sound emitted by the engine, these are the details they will pay attention to.
Zheng Weihong also relied on this love for the bus to achieve his dream!

Whenever Zheng Weihong said that he talked about the facilities of the bus, such as several family treasures. “
For example, the driving wheel, the dashboard, and what brand the control console is, what are the special facilities in the bus, as if some instruments are available to assist the driver to drive the vehicle safely, which can help the driver see the blind spot. ”
Some bus fans also believe that compared with the subway, buses are different in style, design, route and engine, which is a major driving force for them to "chase the bus"; On the contrary, the subway is mainly walking in the tunnel, can not look out the window scenery, nor can hear the sound of more diversified engines.
Liao Weijun also added that as a major satisfaction of bus fans, it is to photograph various buses, collect them as memories, and share them with a new generation of bus fans.
"As bus fans, we are making the public aware of the new buses and the previous buses. Without our group of bus fans, we probably wouldn't have these memories. ”

However, the love of bus fans for buses often leads to different eyes and even misunderstandings in society, and Liao Weijun himself has been mistaken for a terrorist when taking pictures, and has also alarmed security guards to summon the police.
To meet the needs of bus fans, A&S Buses, a singaporean bus fan friendlier, recently held a special event inviting more than 180 bus fans to ride on a Volvo B8L double-decker bus and allowing them to take photos and videos.
Bus companies say bus fans love to take photos and often mislead the public into thinking they pose a safety threat. In view of this, the company found an open parking place, took safety measures, and let the bus fans take a good picture.
A 12-year bus captain said that many parents do not support their children becoming bus fans because they are looked down upon, so they host similar events in the hope of breaking stereotypes about this hobby.

Not only that, but bus companies also hope to help these bus fans turn their enthusiasm into a career, because bus fans' research on buses is not generally in-depth, and if they can join the industry, they will definitely be a new force in the field of public transportation in the mainland.
Hong Xingkui, marketing manager at A&S, said: "They are still very young and we hope to cultivate them from interest to being able to drive buses or work in the bus industry. ”
At the beginning of this year, A&S purchased several German brand MAN buses from SMRT, and Liao Weijun and several bus fans seized the opportunity to obtain a fourth-level driving license and realize their dream of driving a bus.
"I feel like it's not an easy job, but it's something that our young people can do too, not necessarily for the elderly." I've loved buses since I was a kid, and I had the opportunity to play as a profession and a great opportunity to gain experience. ”
Liao Weijun said bluntly that he does not mind becoming a bus captain in the future.
The industry also said that the government can provide scholarships for these interested and qualified bus fans to better train them so that they can continue to play their strengths in the bus industry, thereby reducing Singapore's dependence on foreign bus workers.
