It is SP in SLBP. It cameo in services like 174,179,242,Originally posted by SBS2671B:what were the services that SBS9290X served when it was a SLBP bus?
What were the services it had served before it was a BB SP then SL SP then HG SP then BB SP again?? -
It was a Svc 147 perm before being replaced by the B9s.Originally posted by SBS2671B:What were the services it had served before it was a BB SP then SL SP then HG SP then BB SP again?? -
Well, I must confess that there's a Volvo B10M Mark IV PSV Soon Chow parked at Canberra Primary School. I wonder where the private bus drivers obtain the permisson to park at various schools?

this bus koyak alr..sp buses after awhile they become sot sot de...maybe because the bus everyday change BC and BCs and depot maintenance tend to not treat sp buses with care...this poor bus keep movin like kenna rejected liddatOriginally posted by chickenlittle2:It is SP in SLBP.

it seems rather obvious that this bus is problematic.. if not bbdep wont give this bus to slbp in the first place... then again.... its back there after going on a tour of other west district bus parksOriginally posted by SBS9888Y:this bus koyak alr..sp buses after awhile they become sot sot de...maybe because the bus everyday change BC and BCs and depot maintenance tend to not treat sp buses with care...this poor bus keep movin like kenna rejected liddat

Like a big circleOriginally posted by service_238:it seems rather obvious that this bus is problematic.. if not bbdep wont give this bus to slbp in the first place... then again.... its back there after going on a tour of other west district bus parks
BBDEP 147 --> BBDEP SP --> SLBP SP --> HGDEP SP (cameo back on 147) --> BBDEP SP (again - cameo back on 147) -
as long as dun pass to east district can leOriginally posted by service_238:it seems rather obvious that this bus is problematic.. if not bbdep wont give this bus to slbp in the first place... then again.... its back there after going on a tour of other west district bus parks -
Seeing the pic of 73R, this suddenly reminded me of a question I have been longing to ask.
Why was one of the side desto holders removed in the first place? Some of the SLBP buses I see still have 2 side desto holders today, like 237K & 351M. -

SBS 9290X is on SVC 99 Today! Btw, this bus is gd ok. I personally do not know why SL transferred it out maybe to take in more LO3x like SBS 9156A. Problematic bus should be buses like SBS 9365P, leaking ceilling and also SBS 9214S that always having overheated engine.Originally posted by service_238:it seems rather obvious that this bus is problematic.. if not bbdep wont give this bus to slbp in the first place... then again.... its back there after going on a tour of other west district bus parks -
Actually I gotta question why SBS 9888Y always kena bunching with other buses on the same service when it is on svc 154? You would see MB0405 and LO3x overtaking them.Originally posted by SBS9888Y:as long as dun pass to east district can le -
Originally posted by chickenlittle2:Problematic bus should be buses like SBS 9365P, leaking ceilling and also SBS 9214S that always having overheated engine. But 9365P acceleration and A/C not bad.
9363U is the slowest VO3x on 179. Overtaken by LO3xs easily. I talk to BC, he also complain that 9363U sucks. He was already flooring the accelerator non-stop.
9334D should be the best VO3x on 179 right now. -
Because all VSOs are slow and got no powerOriginally posted by chickenlittle2:Actually I gotta question why SBS 9888Y always kena bunching with other buses on the same service when it is on svc 154? You would see MB0405 and LO3x overtaking them.

Actually I find it strange that people find the VSO no power........it's pick-up speed is not bad considering that they use voith. In fact I would say that the VO3X is slowest in picking-up.Originally posted by SBS9806J:Because all VSOs are slow and got no power -
Are you sure on that? Wait till you try 9487X , that bus's acceleration beat the crap out of 9805 ,9809 and the gang. There are some VO 3 axles that can pick up quickly and chiong faster than LO 3 axles.Originally posted by SBS3625D:Actually I find it strange that people find the VSO no power........it's pick-up speed is not bad considering that they use voith.

Basically slbp has gave away some VO3xes because if they kept them, their maintenance costs would be much higher. I say bbdep is lazy but smart to give them, but slbp is even smarter to give away these buses. The ones you see at slbp are the ones slbp could afford to repair.Originally posted by chickenlittle2:SBS 9290X is on SVC 99 Today! Btw, this bus is gd ok.

The indicator light was not fixed on properly and it's loose, came off the mounting for the indicator lightOriginally posted by stooper:LOL... This reminds me of one of the ex-198 VO3x Batch3. This bus, whenever the left indicator light was switched on, a light below the bumper on the left side will flash in sync with the other indicator lights.
The usual indicator light next to the headlight wasn't working.
Don't know whether it was purposely done or somehow, the light from inside the headlight cover drop to below the bumper... -
Hahaz.. Mmm.. maybe some VO3x but majority of LO3x are faster than VO3x.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:Are you sure on that?

I thought the maintenance fees for LO3x is higher than VO3x?Originally posted by Scania:Basically slbp has gave away some VO3xes because if they kept them, their maintenance costs would be much higher.

If you have a non-problematic LO3x and someone gives you a problematic VO3x, wouldn't your maintenance cost rise.Originally posted by chickenlittle2:I thought the maintenance fees for LO3x is higher than VO3x? -
what shift does SBS9819Y operate on 28?

What are the gearboxes on Scania N113CRB? SgWiki says it is ZF 4HP590 but that is the same gearbox on SBS2888T, and I definitely heard the distinctive Voith braking sound on SBS33G.
