[Locked] SBS Transit orders 900 buses from Scania (Part 1)
-
We could confirm that 100 buses will be shifted to HGDEP since HGDEP has 100 over MK-IIs before the deregistering phase of the MK-IIs. So, HGDEP gets the buses first followed by SLBP, which will phase out a minority of their Mercs. BRBP would get the buses later when their Merc's reached their lifetime expiry date.

Dun forget abt the CRBs which will retire starting next year

The EDS can show any service number.Originally posted by iveco:Soon, we will see WAB cameos on JUR side routes, won't we? -

Like that good mah, less strain on engine, save fuel.Originally posted by QX5216J:if you've had noticed abt the gears..
1st gear -> (ard 3secs later) 2nd gear -> (ard 1.5-2sec later) 3rd gear -> (ard 1.5-2sec later) 4th gear..
the gear changes quite quickly..

try doing that again and you'll get pwnt all over the forum. -
hmm. sound like what the press release said.Originally posted by SBS3625D:Like that good mah, less strain on engine, save fuel. -
Yeap yeap.Originally posted by QX5216J:hmm. sound like what the press release said.
But then gear change so easily we'll be spending the oil $$ we save on gearbox overhaul cos gear change change change, very soon the gearbox just wears out.

hmm. thus i said before.Originally posted by SBS3625D:Yeap yeap.

somehow, this bus will somewhat be like the CRBs.. but not so soon of cos.. -
If so many K230 coming, shouldn't be a problem. Spare parts easy to obtain, expertise in the bus will also tend to higher because more hands-on.Originally posted by QX5216J:hmm. thus i said before.

It's not so for the other buses that are in the minority. Just look at the tridents. They look twice their age. -
It's ok to make assumptions, provided it's done in a logical and sensible manner. This is where the BRAIN comes in.Originally posted by QX5216J:dont anyhow make assumption yeah.

Seemed that someone loved getting pwned time and again. And it's not exciting for that matter. -
Remember sometime ago that someone complained about the state of buses on Service 138? SBST replied that the service will receive "new buses". Not sure though if they actually meant the refurbished O405s or the new Scanias.Originally posted by vivienlee:If only some brand new scanias can go to sv 138 -
More like the Hino HS3KRKAs, the body work now is like..... . Same bodybuilder.Originally posted by QX5216J:hmm. thus i said before.

Firstly, how does bus spotting lead to an accurate list without any speculations?Originally posted by PT21:Which service will be getting the new scania?

Secondly, who are you to ask "some student" to do a favour for you? -
I know some student are so free during school holiday to go out spot buses,

May I know what others wish to do during their free time has anything to do with you, and who are you to command people to assist you?Originally posted by PT21:I know some student are so free during school holiday to go out spot buses,
