was, i unsure. now on 980. i too prefer TIBS livery than SMRT's.Originally posted by finoq:TIB 1257 C...is it the one that was on sv.852? That's the biggest TIB number i've seen so far.
Actually I prefer the Colours of TIBS more than the plain red of SMRT
if i'm not wrong, 1257C came into service as TIB-plate first....Originally posted by muziq bus:Dun hav ur hopes high up....
im just addressing the issue on SMRT's reused buses...
is TIB 1257 C (former CSS310U) the latest addition? Is there more?...
and so it seems that SMRT is really stickin to the TIB rego...
SMRT not considerin of buyin new buses ey??
new buses should be bought in my opinion...the Nissans are rather uncomfortable....i been hearin too many complains on board the buses..
just look at the svc guides of any no. e.g. 61 in TIBS and SMRT compare...Originally posted by finoq:TIB 1257 C...is it the one that was on sv.852? That's the biggest TIB number i've seen so far.

You're wrong. TIB1257C was with CSS ever since it entered service until it got converted to a SMRT bus.Originally posted by ^tamago^:if i'm not wrong, 1257C came into service as TIB-plate first....
yah! especially the busOriginally posted by SBS1985C:I miss the cartoon TIBS buses.... they are so cute.
no no. of the 10 buses (TIB1248D-TIB1257C), it came in as the first TIB-plate.... the UD came in later...Originally posted by SBS9818A:You're wrong. TIB1257C was with CSS ever since it entered service until it got converted to a SMRT bus.

As well as on HINO HS3KRKA/Volgren.Originally posted by LazerLordz:They had a Bendy with a smiley face once.![]()

They never had a Bendy with a smiley face. It was a Volgren body with Hino Chassis. I still have the newspaper cutting.Originally posted by LazerLordz:They had a Bendy with a smiley face once.![]()

Most of the seats of the Hispano MB0405s still remains intact.Originally posted by sinicker:the Hispano MB0405s still look good despite its age.

try hitting the seats with your hand..
9889U has much better seats though... The fabric is by SBS themselves I think since you can see "SBS Transit" all over the seat.Originally posted by hseochin:Perhaps the seat maker Vogel Sitze then didn't have that much variety of seat covers to offer ?
