The buses you hate
-
This topic is an alternative type of topic to the 'Your Favourite Buses' topic.
Last time, I used to hate this bus which was serving for service 225G at that time. I think it was probably SBS 3685E, the one with a 'Denso Sparkplug' ad on it's rear at that time. It's engine turned out to be the loudest roar.
Now, I basically hate buses which are Volvo B10M Mkll buses with Walter Alexander bodies. Theirs was round-in fact, totally round-a design which I hate. It's interior was even worse. There's no glass pane behind the driver's seat. Everything around you looked old and antique. Some collected dust too.
I got onto SBS 1746B and SBS 1772A before. They are buses which match the description above. Their engine roar was bad and I simply disliked it. The outside was ugly looking. The radiator was so big.
To round up, it just doesn't get any better than all.
Others simply disliked Nissan's bad-looking body, interior and works. What's yours? -
Can tell you more people will put hate Nissan over hate Mk2 and this is a STUPID thread.

Sigh.
Tis thread is going to be potentially in flames. -
63...sibeh pai tan everytime....

The DM MK2s also don't have a window. But if I had to choose the worse MK2, I would choose 1888A. The window sills and pillars all have brown dust... The A/C looks very old (from inside the bus).Originally posted by TWS4793:Now, I basically hate buses which are Volvo B10M Mkll buses with Walter Alexander bodies.

I dislike the old mercedes non aircon double deck buses in the 90s.
I don't like their look and the engine sound.
THankfully, they are withdrawn from service now -
All single deck NAC buses plus CAC Nissans

Oh, great. Another "I Hate Buses" thread. Are you guys sure you're on the right forum? There's more hatred than appreciation in here. This forum is already in a gone case situation yet still peolple add more negative posts to degrade it even further. I just don't understand. Where is the love?

"Hate" is too strong. "Dislike" is probably more suitable. Anyway, throughout their operation, sbs and tibs have bought both good and less good quality buses.
So this thread is to discuss about the buses we find which are of lesser quality.
But to cheer you up, I say that currently, I like the leyland aircon double deck bus and the volvo aircon double deck bus with rectangular headlights. (I don't know their models)

I think vivienlee is referring to the Soon Chow bodied Albion Vikings in the past. To me these buses are very noisy too, especially when you sit at the front side of such buses. After these noisy buses were withdrawn form SBS fleet in 1991 the Bedok feeders switched to Volvo NZMB/B57s if I am not wrong. The Scania N113s took over in 1994/1995 when these Volvos reached the end of their lifespan.Originally posted by MingFreeman:haha.......they are the volvos right?

Bloody heck, why the fcuk complain so much? Not happy with your life just go die la! Complain so much.

Christmas '95 to be exact. Some of these B57s served briefly on BBDEP feeders until march '96, when the Mk IIs replaced them for good. The 34** B57s had gone off first.Originally posted by TIB1018B:I think vivienlee is referring to the Soon Chow bodied Albion Vikings in the past.

In fact, Leyland Vikings appeared on CLE feeders sometime around 1991, and stayed for a short time. I suspect they were used as cover for the OF1413s. -
I hate 3625D because it redirects me to another forum when i don't feel that its wise to have a forum without a mod with exprience of handling bus matters.Originally posted by SBS3625D: -

I also hate Non Aircon buses. Whenever you are filled with sweat, you sweat more when you're in those kind of buses. I boarded these buses twice in this year and guess what? I sweat more and feel more giddy than getting onto airconed buses.
Let's list some of the buses currently on NAC's.
SBS 3574S
SBS 3584M
SBS 3601Y
SBS 3603S
SBS 3619Y
SBS 3626B
SBS 3629T
SBS 3632H
Do note that SBS 3581X is now/currently a CAC. It's no longer a NAC because it's reached it's 17 year statutory and needs to be retrofitted with aircons. The last time I boarded them was serving for service 18. But where is it right now? Has it died already? -
It's on 17. It was converted to AC long time ago.Originally posted by TWS4793:I also hate Non Aircon buses. Whenever you are filled with sweat, you sweat more when you're in those kind of buses.

If you say that NAC buses makes you hotter, did you open the windows? If NAC can make giddy, people living in the 80s would have fainted in bus I supposed.
