1) What was the perm fleet of the then BNDEP 16 when the route served CGA then Marine Parade Terminal ?
1a) If 16 was ever partially ARBP/BNDEP then, what were the perm regos of the buses from ARBP side? {If that ever happened}
2) What were the regos of the Sv 63 when it was full ARBP ?
when route was then Rumah Tinggi - Macpherson Est (Loop)

What is the brand of Aircon for B9TLs and B10TLs? Are they the same?

no.. only in that TV Show.. SV88 does not have perm VSO.Originally posted by eX.A.K.R.:Another question:
As that saying goes, life can intimate art sometimes. So I wonder: was SBS 9814K ever a perm bus on route 88?
-
I was just curious.
1. What perm services does the bus SBS 3721J used to ply before it went onto Service 225W?
2. Was SBS 0604J,SBS 0621J, SBS 0754J, SBS 2702X and SBS 2771X BNDEP buses before?
3. What kinds of buses were used on Service 225 before the introduction of Scania N113CRB in 1989 to 1990? -
For the 3rd Question , I think is the Volvo B57's and Leyland Atlanteans (on Sv 222 , 228..)Originally posted by TWS4793:I was just curious.

The B-signal sensors at Raffles Ave, Anson Rd & St Andrew's Rd are located in the bus bay. The rest are located on the bus lanes just before the stop line. The sensors can be identified by black rectangular outlines, 2 for the front wheels, 2 for the rear wheels. Cars are not able to activate the signals because they are not long enough to reach the rear sensors.Originally posted by busmanic:2) How are those B-signals located at certain junctions being activated? Are there sensors located at the kerbs? -
222 also had VO2Xes.Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:For the 3rd Question , I think is the Volvo B57's and Leyland Atlanteans (on Sv 222 , 228..)
Before the B57s, there was the Leyland Vikings. -
I believe 16 was partial ARBP in the old days. Seen one Leyland Viking on 122 with Svc 16 desto on board. 122 used to be BBDEP.Originally posted by SBS9806J:1) MK4 DMs

Yeah - I took TIB1182J on 911 twice (as cameo) and the bus was travelling at somehow 60km/h swerving around the tight corners. Exciting sia!Originally posted by eX.A.K.R.:I was in a Volgren Bendy (TIB 1179U) once, and at one point, it was travelling as fast as an SUV that was travelling beside it. I estimated that it hit at least 90 km/h at one point. -
I think SBS621J was on 11 before it went to BNDEPOriginally posted by TWS4793:I was just curious.

I know either one of them iwas on 11 before. -
Why is it that SBST's Volvo always got fire & SMRT's buses dun even got serious fire damage like 7253S? Is it because Volvo buses catch fire easily? If not wy Smrt buses dun catch fire , smrt dun hv volvo!!!!
