Ever saw two buses from the same service at the same busstop
-
It happened to me just today while riding 161. Apparently, I miss a Volvo B9TL on 161, but only a minute later, a Volvo B10TL came and guess what: It's on 161 and it was off-peak! I rode it and the B9TL infront of me. The B10TL only took 4 passengers, while the B9TL took 40-50 passengers. It was like racing. The B9TL was ahead from Woodlands Interchange till Sengkang when my bus(B10TL) overtook it. We stopped at another busstop and the B9TL took over. The B10TL beaten the B9TL at Compass Point Busstop and there was this straight that B10TL and B9TL were racing eachother till the disadvantage of the B9TL for taking more passengers kicked in and lost to the B10TL. Both buses reached the Interchange together with the B10TL in front and then the B9TL behind. The B9TL went off-service afterwards.
I got some pics of the action and will post it on my Yahoo! Photo Gallery.
Wondering wheter some of you guys witnesed buses race each other 'legally'? -

143 also . 2 times took it , 2 times my bus bunched with another DD . U guessed it , both the trips i took was on a B9TL .
-
try 3 bendy buses with 67.
-
Yeah.... me VS SBS461D
-
Try 5 147 DDs together..
-
More than that.
saw three Service 131 buses bunch before going towards St Mike's Terminal -
911 very frequent, 900 not so frequent
Every morning will see TIB525K and another rigid (normally perm) bunching up at every bus stop, and 900 got see TIB1139K (cameo) bunch up TIB1049L before
147 does that everyday regardless of peak and non-peak -
Townlink 291 and 293 also. I dunno is Service 170 having the same bus arriving at the same time, also Service 179.
-
7 190 bendies
at BP to CCK pm peak -
Hmm, wait till you see the 'convoy' made up by three svc 189 buses, two bendies and one rigid, and two of them are BCs who like to race so much that they can push until 60km/h on the small stretch on East Ave 6... (and the other who don't race still can keep up)...
Or maybe the peak hours, yeah, svc 147, waited for twenty minutes and four buses came together, heehee... -
Try 74 in the morning or evenings.
-
quite often!!!
-
this one worse, once i saw 5 of them and a off-service one can come and do 74...Originally posted by Y_Shun:Try 74 in the morning or evenings. -

i've seen 3 service 15 at marine parade bus stop (Bef Parkway Parade).
1st bus: Full
2nd bus:half -full
3rd bus:EMPTY! (it was tagging behind both buese infront of it!) -
i saw 3 no. 74 buses arrive one after another in the Ngee Ann bus stop during peak hours.
Then another 74 came like 2-3 mins later after they left. -
It's near impossible for Yishun Feeders (except maybe 811).
Seen 4 Nissan UDs at the same time in the same busstop before
? -
Countless of 179

Anyway , race arh ? Ytd took SBS7465Y on 143 . Our bus was ahead first . Near harbourfront , one VO3x overtook us , because we are waiting to pick up passengers . Then both bus met at a bus stop . We took off together and stopped at the same time at a traffic light , side by side , i guess the BC were talking to each other using sign language . Then when the traffic light turns green , we immediately took off in an instant , leaving the VO3x behind .
But never under estimate the VO3x ! Our bus stopped at a busstop to pick up people as we are infront . Then the VO3x just zoom past at quite a high speed , much to my amazement . Then at West Coast road there, we raced again . At the roundabout , our bus was kinda turning at medium speed , so it was quite bumpy . Then when we reached the straight road (literally all lights were green , so we are able chiong) . Saw the VO3x infront of us , but our bus just powers away ! Can hear the B9TL engine's turbo , very loud . Overtook the VO3x . From then on , at Teban Garderns there , no more overtaking .
Nice "race" .
