Empty Promises made... -
its an act of prudence...
because when circle line opens, there will be many extra buses due to rationalisation.... these "extra buses" will takeover the mk2 and Scanias in the next few years.
If the Scanias and mk2 had been scrapped this year, there will be a severe shortage of buses, and if new ones were purchased, after about 5 years when CCL opens, there will be over-supply of buses.. -
See how well the CCL can cope with 3 carriage trainOriginally posted by 105090:its an act of prudence...

Jurong West got scanias?Originally posted by stooper:They serve my area but I have no complaints as well...
Hopefully the scanias will be scrapped when B9TLs come in. SBS Transit cant possibly extend it for like 4 - 5 years right? -

Looks like PLA bus commuters have to struggle another 2 years to travel on those NAC Scanias -
Wow , SBST has decide to keep those LOUSY scanias . Congrats to them.
I took 65P on 157 to Boon Lay and it was horrible ! Lousy Air con , Lousy suspension (Mercedes's the best) , Lousy BRAKING and Shaky engine ! It's a disgrace.
Scania on svc 30 ? What a disgrace. Deploying such lousy buses on svc 30 , what is Bedok north playing at ? Short of Volvo buses? I can understand Nissan Diesels on 187 and 178 (Shortage of buses) and Bedok North ?
Let's see the problems with SBST's depots
Bedok North = Deploying LOUSY SCANIAS on main trunk services (Cameos included)
Ang Mo Kio/Braddel = When will 24, 53,135 and other mercedes bus services get at least a cameo Volvo bus ? At the end of their lifespan perhaps ? Look at Soon Lee, they are spreading their volvo buses around, every mercedes fleet service gets volvo buses once in a while , why can't ang mo kio do the same ? Dont bullcrap about the side desto. I saw 57 and 59 with the square desto on Mark IV DM3500.
Hougang depot: What can I say about this depot . Bias . Look at service 197 fleet. 8 lousy Mark IIIs , no cameo trident before but at least they have some decent 9500/9600 series . Non Air con buses appearing on services that are supposed to be aircon (Serangoon interchange) Service 151 complaints ? Did SBST listen ? If I am not wrong, most of the buses from hougang right ?
SMRT may have their problems as well but their problems are not as bad as SBST.
I feel that ever since after SBST took control of NEL. Their standard has dropped. Complaining is also no use but some of these are what I feel about the service.
On the brighter note, looking forward to see B9TL buses. I hope they will place an order for low floor single decks as well. (No Volvo please) Scania will do for me . I just hate the old scanias of SBST. That is all.
Yeah.
I hope for the end of all SBST Scanias ! 31L-80U to go first. -

SBST to buy Scanias.. ?? So that 17yrs later.. you will go complain about "This Lousy Scania, That Lousy Scania" again rite ? merdz ? Oh pls.. Scania perform better than the Merdz from what i see.... -
scania dun perform better than merc. merc dun perform better than volvo. volvo dun perform better then daf.
Its all up to each one of u. This speculation wont end. Like said, One man's meat is another man's poison. U might like it but others dun. Respect others choice and others wud respect u. And please, different marques have different technology and such. So pls dun splurt shit on what to buy and not
