Pinkie and Purpee?Originally posted by ^tamago^:2 new Scania L94UB's have arrived in Singapore for HippoTours. They are Pinkie (PA4520T) and Purpee (PA4518B).
Pinkie will go on an exclusive route into Sentosa via Orchard.
Purpee will go to Marine Parade, Katong and Geylang Serai.
These rides will commence sometime in July.
An attractive promotion will be launched when these 2 buses come into service, together with a small re-branding of the Hippo&Duck comnined tours (the name HippoTours and WackyDuck will remain). A good time to try the L94UB's again.
Stay tuned for more information.
erm, will the purpee service turns out to be a white elephant like Citybuzz? especially C3? i dont think anyone will want to go pass by the areas on Hippo Tours knowingly on the high fares and low attractionsOriginally posted by ^tamago^:2 new Scania L94UB's have arrived in Singapore for HippoTours.

the SBSL turf city buses now used are also Sentosa B10M Mk IV's. the SBST-painted equivalent are on 78. the CRL's are either scrapped or sold off to WestPoint, like PA908L and PA919E.Originally posted by sBs_boy:Sentosa is Mk4 de.. now on 78 with SBS Transit... the CRL are the Ex-AirBus(If nt Wrong).. now on Turf City Shuttle (TPY - TC)
