What are the buses you like/dislike?
-
Thats because the B9TL / CNGs are low entry buses . They aren't low floor . Low floor buses like Citaro , B9L , OC500LF (not LE) have no steps . Its flat floor all the way .Originally posted by brotherchen1982:The meaning behind is my hate for B9/CNGs/Lances that step after the Exit doors, making people difficult to move in.
So far , the B9TL, Lances aren't the ones with the highest steps. The highest are the B7RLEs at Sentosa . -

There are CNG buses where tanks are underfloor. -

done..i wonder is SBST gonna scrapped the mark IIs on the day after the end of its lifespan? those on layup y cant scrap first..qi guai lor...anyway the B10TLs i think when they reach 10years old they will become like the UDs hated alot... the Voith radiators are the loudest amongst all of the public buses...want to make us deafOriginally posted by SBS1985C:Edit: ELBOs are air conditioned buses with non functioning aircon. 
ELBOs = total disgrace seriously...i think SMRT would agree...

alamak - dunno whether u misunderstood what i'm saying or not?Originally posted by carbikebus:Harlow boy,Which year they did convert the buses?Less AC buses you all make noises,Convert also make noise?Really ungrateful
what i meant is instead of converting to AC those few MK 2 buses that are going to be scrapped (eg SBS1696L - already gone!) - why not leave these buses untouched and channel the effort to convert to AC those MK 2 buses that are amongst the last to be retired?
makes economical sense also isn't it?
ok - in other words;
instead of converting eg 10 buses to AC that got only eg 1yr lifespan left; why not leave these buses alone and convert the other 10 buses that got eg 3yr lifespan left? -
why not i keep operating costs low by scrapping the NACs first and use their spare parts for the CACs regardless who retires earlier?Originally posted by SBS3688Y:alamak - dunno whether u misunderstood what i'm saying or not?

Fav:
Sentosa VOLVO B7RLE (prob the only Volvo model i really like!)
-
I like:
Volvo B9TLs-Powerful Gearbox
Volvo B10M Mark IIs-Powerful Gearbox and Engine, Nice Seating Arrangement=Can become School Buses like the ex-Albions which become Scheme B Buses.
Volvo B10M Mark IV DM, Strider, DM3500-Great Engine and Seating Arrangement=Can become School Bus/Scheme B Bus
Volvo B10BLE CNG-Good Engine
Volvo B7RLE Coach Body and Double Deck- Great Engine Sound, same as B10M Mark IIs and Great Body Work
Nissan U31RCN/SCN(AC/CAC) Cold Aircon and unsealable windows=Great blow of wind.
Hino AK= Great Sound but, bad suspension
Dennis Lance= Powerful Gearbox
Mercedes 0405 DM and WA= Good Engine

Mercedes 0405 Hispano CACs
Neutral:
Volvo B10M Mark 3
Volvo Olympian
Leyland Olympian
Volvo Olympian NAC
Leyland Olympian NAC
DAF
Scania N113CRB- Great sitting arrangement except for the paralel seats. Can convert straight seat
Scania Low-floor SBS= I thought this bus have some foldable seats like the cinema in 2000 but somehow, they're gone when I rode it 6 years later.
I hate:
Volvo B10TL Volgren- Engine too slow, other buses are more faster, faulty aircon on upper deck but, nice exterior
Mercedes 0405 Hispano- Aircon so stuffy
Mercedes 0405G- Some buses have no aircon and have this stinky smell at the trailer cabin
Scania L113 Strider- Ok, except bus always vibrates at rest. Can make people vomit.
Scania L113 ELBO- Rare but aircon sometime not working, P1 children cannot climb up to sit at the front, need adult to carry him
Volvo B10BLE Volgren- Ugly sitting arrangement -

uuuuh fren u sure B9L is zero step ALl the way? i think shd have that silly step againOriginally posted by Scania N113CRB luver:Thats because the B9TL / CNGs are low entry buses . They aren't low floor . Low floor buses like Citaro , B9L , OC500LF (not LE) have no steps . Its flat floor all the way .
So far , the B9TL, Lances aren't the ones with the highest steps. The highest are the B7RLEs at Sentosa .
