of course i know it's the short form. You are not answering my question whether Duple and Metal Sections merged together.Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:'Metsec' is short form for 'Metal Sections'.
Anyway SBS9816E has answered my question. Thank you SBS9816E. -
SBS 1908B is right. The "PS" is a modification of the "P" design for Singapore. The company found that many other operators like the "PS" design so they added the "PS" to their product range.Originally posted by SBS1985C:based on SGwiki , WA had the
P type
PS type
R type - including RH, RL, RV, RLC, RVC & RHS
ALX series - including ALX100, ALX200, ALX300, ALX400, ALX500 .
so I think PS might not be only for Singapore -
I don't know where you got this idea but there is no such thing as an Alexander L Flexvision body.Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:SBS2427R served on Svc 166.
There are two types of Alexander L bodyworks for the LAs:
- Alexander L (1980), as mentioned already.
- Alexander L Flexvision (1982), SBS5529K has such bodyworks, front body has the word 'LEYLAND'.
btw, there is MB OF1413, LP1113, etc.
What is OF & LP stands for?

AFAIK, Flexvision was an advertising device and it was more commonly found on the Duple Metsec Atlanteans.Originally posted by Apex-LW'21: -
Serious question :
as you all know, i am an 18-year-old who just did his A lvls this year. so.. IS TODAY MY LAST DAY USING MY STUDENT EZLINK CARD? there's still $5 in it! -
Nope, you still can use your student ez-link card for another 6 months, but you will not get concession fares.Originally posted by sinicker:Serious question :

if i'm not wrong, you can continue to use your card for 55 months (4 yrs 7 mths) but you are encouraged to change to an adult card. the behaviour of the card will switch to that of an adult card when your concession eligibility ends.Originally posted by sinicker:Serious question :

When my secondary school EZ `link card with concession expires, it was extended to 21st January 2004. (3 more weeks). Then, the adult fare period till the final expiry date is in July 2004. So means 6 months extraOriginally posted by ^tamago^:if i'm not wrong, you can continue to use your card for 55 months (4 yrs 7 mths) but you are encouraged to change to an adult card. the behaviour of the card will switch to that of an adult card when your concession eligibility ends. -
N = Vertically-mounted, horizontally-opposed engineOriginally posted by SBS1985C:I got another question. In Scania N113 CRB what does the N and the CRB stand for?
11 = 11-litre engine
3 = 3rd series (mark)
C = City (Intra-city) Bus
R = Right-hand drive
B = Standard floor height (with stepped entry) -
Is there such thing as DM2500?
-
er, no?Originally posted by SBS1908B:Is there such thing as DM2500? -
I doubt so .... I never heard of it before.Originally posted by SBS1908B:Is there such thing as DM2500? -
If it is a vertical engine, then it cannot be horizontally opposed. The piston in a vertical engine moves up-down while that of a horizontal engine moves left-right. A horizontally opposed engine have 2 sets of pistons placed directly opposite to one another.Originally posted by ^tamago^:N = Vertically-mounted, horizontally-opposed engine

The correct term for the 'N' in 'N113' is transversely mounted, vertical engine. The 'C' in 'CRB' stands for single deck rigid bus. -
Don't have.Originally posted by SBS1908B:Is there such thing as DM2500? -
