why not.......

and it ever happen once , 2 days back in fact.

Exactly. I really hope some B9TLs will get some EDS or something. EDS are more cool than traditional plastic signs, of course, its costs more and cost more to maintain as well.Originally posted by SBS9888Y:will any b9tl have EDS?

So far just to ask, has anybody seen a wheelchair bound personnel board the WAB bus?

I have not seen a bus inspector personnel on wheelchair going on board the bus to check our tickets.

I just saw a B9TL with Mark & Spencer ad on svc 7 at Bedok Int (around half an hour ago)... But I cannot see the rego...
Svc 7 is the first service to get "Superbuses", but it is not the first to get B9TLs...

In Singapore, not yet...Originally posted by tanjun:So far just to ask, has anybody seen a wheelchair bound personnel board the WAB bus?
In other countries, yes... In fact very often... (Buses in Germany can tilt to one side, and buses in USA and Canada can "kneel" down so that wheelchairs can go up the ramp easier. When I lived in Vancouver, I saw wheelchair personnel boarding buses once every 5 rides...) -

SBS adds 3 new wheelchair-accessible bus services
SINGAPORE: Disabled people will now find it easier to travel to residential estates like Pasir Ris, Tampines, Bedok, Clementi and Queenstown.
SBS Transit has introduced three wheelchair-accessible bus (WAB) services to these areas.
The routes covered also include key medical facilities like the Singapore General Hospital, Raffles Hospital and various polyclinics and dental clinics.
Services 12, 196 and 198 were launched on Sunday in conjunction with the International Day of Disabled Persons.
This brings the total number of WAB services to five, with a fleet of 62 buses.
SBS Transit says more than 800 wheelchair passengers have used the service since it was launched in June this year.
It says WABs help the disabled to integrate into society and allows them the opportunity to be more independent. - CNA/so -

What's the difference between ZF And VoithOriginally posted by ^tamago^:

Gearbox sound lohOriginally posted by TheVistaAero:What's the difference between ZF And Voith -
As Volvo Olympian said above, the gearbox sound. Voith gearboxes have a distinctive whistling sound, making buses sound rather futuristic; perk your ears up for them when the bus decelerates - it will go something like "wEEEEEeeeeeeeeuuu...".Originally posted by TheVistaAero:What's the difference between ZF And Voith
As for ZF, I'm not too sure, but I heard some of them have a howling sound. -
