Which svc has the first full bendy fleet?
-
bendies on 171 was withdrawn mainly becoz of low demand during the non-peak, sometimes, the bus would be empty.
But dun understand why they withdraw totally, SMRT shuld have used some bendies during peak hours

858A could be a crossover from other svcs tat uses bendy busesOriginally posted by eX.A.K.R.:I think it's quite strange that a route that was the testbed for the bendy bus has no more bendy buses now... the last time I saw one on route 171 was a few years ago, with the second version of the Hispano-bodied MB O405G. Anybody know why there are no more bendies on that route?
Also, I keep hearing peristent rumours about a bendy bus on route 858 years ago, but from the information I gather here, the closest route 858 ever got bendy buses was when it's short-working trip route, route 858A, had it before. Could there had been a mix-up between routes 858 and 858A when someone said he saw a bendy bus on route 858? I can't imagine a bendy bus squeezing into the narrow Changi Airport basement... -
but even though it is a crossover, a bendy would be impossible to fit in the Changi airprt parking bay, no space at all.
imagine bendies running up the kerbs every now and then

858A operates only between Woodlands and Yishun Ave 2 in the morning peak, it doesn't go to Changi Airport at all.

[b]History of Bendy Bus deployments
Perm full fleet: 180,

Anyway, I think some 180 bendies should be removed and placed on 187 instead.... 180 seldom packed... 187 evening peak almost every bus packed to the front door. -
And after 11:55pm , Sv 858 will terminate at Yishun IntOriginally posted by TIB1018B:858A operates only between Woodlands and Yishun Ave 2 in the morning peak, it doesn't go to Changi Airport at all. -
out of topic, why there isnt perm bendies on 911, i find it packed during the peak hours, moreover, it is an intratown, shuldnt it deserve bendies as perm and not rare cameos?

I did remember Sv 911 have bendies before. When i was staying in WDL last time , i usually see a lot of Bendies on 911 , not so sure for now.Originally posted by TIB1213D:out of topic, why there isnt perm bendies on 911, i find it packed during the peak hours, moreover, it is an intratown, shuldnt it deserve bendies as perm and not rare cameos? -
the last time i took it, it was filled with 950 0405s, no sight of bendies

Nvr seen a Scania sv180 before...but have seen a DAF sv180 indeedOriginally posted by stooper:I suspect 180 has 1 WLDEP crossover in the morning... Don't think it's a bendy... Around 7.00 - 7.15am will be on Jurong Town Hall Road. I've seen a Scania cameoing on it before, as well as WL O405s... -
Yeah! Me too see, DAF before... If you go to Jurong Town Hall Road (intersection with PIE) there, at around 7 - 7.15am, there should be a WLDEP xover heading to BNL... That was last year... Should still be similar this year unless timetable change...

hiOriginally posted by anti_NISSAN_U31:U 4got about 184 and 960.
Btw, I think sv176 got bendy b4 sv851...remember seeing TIB838H on sv176 b4 TIB849B and its gang came in
no 184 and 960 did not get box bendies first. i stand by the answer is 82. no 176 got their bendies after 851. TIB838H was still on 171 when 851 got thier bendies

Theres hardly a 12m cameo on this service...so to see a Hino cameo...is super rare...Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:Nowadays, didn't see Hino or DAF cameoing on these 2 CCK feeders
911 do not deserve the bendies if compared to 912 and 913
171 also do not deserve to have bendies if you were to note the passenger volume daily....period -
Nowadays, i always see a Hispano Habit (first batch) on 911, issit a perm or long time cameo??Originally posted by muziq bus:Theres hardly a 12m cameo on this service...so to see a Hino cameo...is super rare...

Sv 900, 901 & 912: Uses full fleet bendies.
(TIB1213D: It's Sv 912, not 902) -
Sv 927 used to have bendies too.Originally posted by muziq bus:171 also do not deserve to have bendies if you were to note the passenger volume daily....period -

I guess you must be lying indeed , since when did 927 have bendies? How do the bendies turn at the small roundabout at the Mandai Lake Rd (zoo)??Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:Nope but this piece of info was taken from other sources.
