Nothing much about buses interest me
Only found 1 thing interesting:
In germany, in this city, all their buses tilt a little when letting passengers board or alight -
Sound and registration numbers (which led to me deciphering the licence plates pattern)...
-
long time ago... when my ex gf gave me a bj in the back of a double decker sbs bus.
from then on, their special. -
I started liking the sound of only TIB1049L. Then I hear the sounds of different buses and then see number plate. Then now I end up liking TIB465A
Triangle affair -
Makes me think of the accident a few years ago when TIB 1049 L was plying on 859... crash somewhere (forgotten) and the windscreen shattered...Originally posted by TIB1049L:I started liking the sound of only TIB1049L.

i think the tilt allows the entrance and exit to lean closer to the bus stop to let the pax board/ alight more easily, not too sure though.Originally posted by eagle:Nothing much about buses interest me

not sure if SG Buses can do that. -
I like the Mercedes Benz's O405 stable suspension and quick acceleration . Initially i like both merc , but due to SMRT's O405 having smelly seats which can be intolerable at times , i prefer SBST Mercs now.
I like the ELBO alot as well , for its speedy acceleration and sweet turbo whistle . The ELBO bodywork (exterior) also looks nice on the ELBO .
Alot more.

Sound and finding the pattern between different registration numbers. Like for example, bus type with registration, buses with or without tv and so on.
Lastly, bus routes. -
I heard of the one on 901 only. TIB1049L hit 912 rigid ... ...Originally posted by Oceane:Makes me think of the accident a few years ago when TIB 1049 L was plying on 859... crash somewhere (forgotten) and the windscreen shattered... -
I think so tooOriginally posted by 201911:i think the tilt allows the entrance and exit to lean closer to the bus stop to let the pax board/ alight more easily, not too sure though.
Sg wise, got buses that have floors parallel to the bus stop (some of bus 161)
Similar effect -
I started spotting bus as young as 7 years old.. Cos my hse is facing the road where svc 99 & 242 would pass by.. When I heard a bus pass by, I would jump on the sofa (that is near the window) to see the rego of the bus.. I started to like LO2x DD and later MB 0405 (DM NAC). Rmb that when MB 0405 (DM NAC) cameo on svc 242, I would wait for MB 0405 (DM NAC) then LO2x..
I like the stable and fast acceleration of MB 0405.. Especially the DM type, u can see their chassis design are still used these days.. -
when last time i go home from my uncle house at jurong to cck road
lots of old UD nissan on 187 ( that time 187 aircon is hard to comeby ) -
I initially also started looking at bus registration numbers... then slowly I found an interesting pattern in them... esp. the security alphabet.Originally posted by tanjun:Sound and finding the pattern between different registration numbers.

Letter Patterns (Alternative Skipping)
New Tens Theory (SKIP A LETTER)
New Hundreds Theory (SKIP 9 LETTERS)
New Thousands Theory (FOLLOW LETTER FROM X999)
The 3100 Theory (Complicated To Explain )
And a few more... those interested next time tell me I post here wor. -
I like some which the last prefix letter rhymes with the last number , for e.g. SBS7478R , "8" is read as bar , hence "bar and "ar ". Rhymes.Originally posted by Oceane:I initially also started looking at bus registration numbers... then slowly I found an interesting pattern in them... esp. the security alphabet.

For me...
1. The torque a Mercedes Benz O.305 produced. It could climb slopes with ease.
2. The shaky movements of a Leyland Atlantean.
