Triton has long gone into the history books. Handal Indah took
over its assets and routes. The only remaining 'active fleet' are
those in JB. Handal Indah operates these routes using
Triton-registered buses due to permit issues.
Metrobus, on the other hand, is doing fine, so far. Metrobus
operates a very unique system where buses were leased to
individuals for them to operate the services. Metrobus merely owned
the buses and permits, whereas the operational aspects such as
scheduling, manpower and maintenance are left to the lessees. They
are not bleeding, but they are not doing too well either.
So the Triton Lances in KL have been repainted into CW livery?
Anyway, Metrobus appears to be running its operations using what
appears to be a franchise system.
What about bus routes in Perak? Anyone has any ideas if they are
fine?
