  ComfortDelgro Engineering's Seneko workshop only has space for taxi refuelling and auto repairs, no bus building facilites there.

  What i mean is apart from having the buses built at HG, ComfortDelgro sub out a number of the buses (in this case I suspect the 84xx series) to be built by another contractor.

  hello.. i never assume anything. read carefully my post pls and see the "full stop". I say they are assembled in HG. I say MAYBE come from the workshop at Senoko. I never say they are assembled there. The buses may be from there after doing some checks or what..

  Service 14, 123 and 174 will be WAB services w.e.f 28/04/2008. pls bring your wheelchair-bound friends onboard these services.

  I guess what SBS_Boy is trying to say, is not the assumption that they are coming from Senoko, but rather the assumption that ALL of them are assembled at HG...

  That means that 105 will get K230UBs. That is bad. I've always liked the Merc and Volvo-filled 105. Can't get used to the smell of the interior of the K230UBs.

  So there is still no news about K230Ub on 124 according to someone that 124 driver under something...
