who's the itchy hand that keeps editing wikipedia?Originally posted by swee_heng:dont tell me SBST is purchasing B7RLEs with LED display. This website says so. -
Sekali it is the B9Ls that they are interested in.
Or maybe it is a Korean brand who knows. -
the guy who added the crap abt B7RLE coming to SBST is a spammer, u can see if u go look at history of the page. no proof he's the guy who talked abt Citaro Merc though, that person signed up and hide his IP addressOriginally posted by SBS9818A:who's the itchy hand that keeps editing wikipedia? -
But then again, the CItaros are too wide to be deployed in SG or AU, hence the purchase of the O500s by Transperth.Originally posted by 201911:the guy who added the crap abt B7RLE coming to SBST is a spammer, u can see if u go look at history of the page. no proof he's the guy who talked abt Citaro Merc though, that person signed up and hide his IP address -

Mercedes-Benz O530 Citaro G Wheelchair Accessible Bus (WAB) [LED Display]
Currently, SBST has ordered 100 buses to replace its old fleet. The new 500 Scanias is still intact with the order. This project will ensure SBST will have high standards and the public will be sastisfied. This is will be Singapore's first public bus with a Toilet. The buses will be in the fleet in the beginning of 2009.
Another suprising news informs that SBST will convert all its current Leyland Olympians to non-airconditioned due to the major losses of 30% in the third quarter of the year 2007.
SBST has planned to merge with SMRT but SMRT has rejected because they knew they would earn lesser than ever before.
SBST is going to sell its current services number 2 10 97 98 99 100 30 11 154 174 175 185 198 to SMRT for a huge sum of $100 million dollars. It is expected it will happen in the first quarter of 2008.
Now to its current state, the following plans of future SBST is:
- Sell North East Line
- Sell the selected Services
- All buses are Wheelchair Friendly
- Merge with SMRT for better earning money and improve service standards
- Frequency of buses reduced to 5 mins
- More lucky draws for the public
- Insert Toilets found in buses.
- Increase fares by 20% in 2008
- Singapore Bus Fondation (Where people can donate)
- All buses will be GPS enabled.
- Future buses in each seat to contain a 14" LCD TVSBST is currently removing its current TVs and inserting 20" LCD TV in each seat for better view.

Singapore Bus Fondation (Where people can donate)
The person who edited the article must have been inspired by this podcast.
the mrbrown show: save the buses!
It should be 'National Bus Foundation'. -
I believe someone must have gone to make an edit to the articles once again.
Take a look at this: Bedok Bus Interchange
Service 35 is a WAB Service???
EDIT: I'm slowly trying to undo the damage caused to articles related to buses in Singapore. Can people here also help to check on any vandalisms made to the articles? Thanks. -

Insert Toilets found in buses?? That would be very very interesting, but I think that's impossible at all, most of the bus companies would like to make more seats or standing area to increase more capacity instead introduce the insert toliets~~Originally posted by choww:What do u think? -
To be honest, I don't really think SBST will get Mercedes Citaros~~
First of all, the price of Citaro is quite expensive and Mercedes will provide the completed buses instead body-kits and chassis separately, and SBST wants body-kits and chassis separately deliver to them~~
But I should say, Volvo B7RLE would be more suitable and possibility for SBST as well, according some info from Wikipedia, SBST is evaluating the wheelchair accessible chassis offer by Volvo, it seems to be B7RLE as well~~ -
