taken 9889U thrice on sat when it was under 147 and even felt it reverse, but no kick...
i take 9888Y daily after school to toa payoh and thats what a bus should be... the best vso ever... quiet and highest energy savings
BUT The buses just look different and special, thats all... it terms of the efficiency and quality of the bus, they're the same with those bought in bulk... because of the numbers when bought in bulk, usually there would be the good ones and bad ones... whereas for demos, or small orders, small or no comparison at all can be made -
Hmm ... Anyway do you guys know the departure times for 105 CNGs from Serangoon Int in the afternoons? Thanks alot!

Most of the buses with Denso AC are the Lances. However, some of them also use Sutrak.Originally posted by Scania:No SBST Mercs besides 999U uses Denso, There are three kinds of air con, one is Webasto, the other is also Webasto and the third Sutrak. One of the Webasto is the one with two vents, the other has three vents. How to see whether its a Webasto, look on top of the air con where the fans/rotor are, there will be a Webasto word above each rotor.
Some DM Mercs in SBS fleet have AC units supplied by Fuji Industries. -
I assume you're only talking about CAC Mercs?Originally posted by Scania:No SBST Mercs besides 999U uses Denso, There are three kinds of air con, one is Webasto, the other is also Webasto and the third Sutrak.

That means both the squarish design (with 2 vents on each side and 4 fans) and the one which looks like a rounder version of Sutrak (3 vents on each side, 5 fans) are both Webasto?
The squarish design one being used on CAC DM MK2s also? -
The CAC WA MK2 flat A/Cs are also Denso, along with LO3x. Also SMRT Volgren 12m.Originally posted by iveco:Most of the buses with Denso AC are the Lances. However, some of them also use Sutrak. -

Wrong, there are more SBST buses which use Denso than SMRT Lances.Originally posted by iveco:Most of the buses with Denso AC are the Lances. However, some of them also use Sutrak.
Some DM Mercs in SBS fleet have AC units supplied by Fuji Industries.
The UMW Lances use Sutrak except 916R which uses a Carrier air con (old version) and 943L which uses a Denso
The SMRT CAC Mercs use Hispacold and Denso, though it is difficult to identify which are Denso and which are Hispacold.
SBST Scanias, All OAC use Fuji except 79A which uses a smaller Carrier unit (the old Fuji air con box is still there), All CAC use Cool Air except 3628X and 3693G, which uses Denso and 3709X and 3716A, which uses Webasto (2 vents).
Hinos use Denso, same for Volgren Mercs and Lances (UK and Volgren). -
Both use the Denso unit (3 vents and 5 fans on top with round corners).Originally posted by chickenlittle2:huh? SBS 3723D, SBS 3731E uses sutrak carrier a/c unit ?? -
Although both are rather short (in height), the Denso one has round edges on all 4 sides, with 4 fans placed in 2 rows.Originally posted by Scania:The SMRT CAC Mercs use Hispacold and Denso, though it is difficult to identify which are Denso and which are Hispacold.
The Hispacold will usually have a yellow Hispacold word and the side (if haven't drop off yet...) and is more angular at the front. The back is not streamlined at all, it's just a straight cut down. The Hispacold has many small fans arranged in one row. -
Is there any distinct way to show that ' Last bus terminating at...' for the last trip of services without swt?

Sorry if a lot of ppl had asked these questions. If possible, please tell all times, thanks. -
Svc 274 was already doomed when 57 came about.
Same thing as Svc 17 (BDK to BNDEP stretch) and 163 (SKG to Fernvale sector). Will there be a 57A looping @ Gilman Hts in future? -
Was SBS 9C a B10M? If it was, what Mark was it?
-
It was a Mk I with a Van Hool body kit. SBS liked it so much that they purchased almost 1000 units of this model over the years.Originally posted by SBS9806J:Was SBS 9C a B10M? If it was, what Mark was it? -
275 also a matter of time.. in fact, SBST is slowly withdrawing its feeders, in place are new/ extended trunk services for better connectionsOriginally posted by iveco:Svc 274 was already doomed when 57 came about.
