[h3]Year 1940s[/h3]
Hong Kong was occupied by Japan during Word War II.
The bus and ferry service were suspended. All buses and ferries
were seized and lost. Only some ferries could be recovered from
other places in China after war.
[h3]Year 1950s[/h3]
No traffic light yet. Traffic was directed manually.
Single deck buses were the majority initially.

Traffic police stand was upgraded.
More and more double deckers. Most were imported from UK.
Zebra crossing was added.
Private car parking area was cancelled.
[h3]Year 1960s[/h3]
Zebra crossing was removed because an overpass had been built for
passengers to come to this pier.
More bus routes were added.
The layout of bus terminal was changed.
The advertising banner of "Victory" cigarettes was added on that
pier overpass.

Harbour Tunnel was opened in 1972.
Double-decker buses had been deployed in nearly all routes.
Rear engine buses (leyland fleetline) were introduced. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daimler_Fleetline
Those 3 yellow stripes in front of some buses were to indicate that
only one conductor was on that bus. Previously, there were 2 or 3
conductors on a bus to collect payments from passengers. And very
soon, no conductor on bus at all.
[h3]Year 1980s[/h3]

[h3]Year 2000s[/h3]
Three-axle long and air-conditioned buses were the majority.
Golden color buses from Germany (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAN_SE) were
introduced, which were much more comfortable.
Buses were more colorful as the technology made it cheaper and
