SBS Sv 151 gets B9TL double decks!
-
I overheard from 2 pairs of NUS people - 1 local 1 foreign.
The local pair commented: Once a service with all the old buses, now all the new buses on it.
The foreign pair was seated behind me. They commented that the company may increase the headway of the service because of the DD. Its not productive having 3 buses coming at one go - 1 fully packed, 1 half packed, 1 rather empty. They believe it would do good at curbing bus bunching.

Since our OC500LEs are meant to replace the outgoing Nissan UDs, maybe if SPH is lazy, then maybe SV178 will get upgrade from UD to OC500LE. -

No choice mah, because some buses have to replace the NAC Volvo MK2s. Just happen that service 151 got direct Volvo MK2 to Scania K230UB (while other services with Volvo MK2s got only Volvo MK3/MK4 fleets at most
). Anyway some other examples:-Service 3
majority Scania N113CRB and Volvo MK3 fleets, now have Scania K230UBsService 6
NAC Scania N113CRB to a new MAN demonstator (1 fleet only)Service 37
full Scania N113CRB NAC/AC fleets to full Volvo MK3/MK4/DD fleetsSome moderate upgradings like services 13, 24, 26, 53, 57, 130, 183, 185, 232, 238, 265, 268 which used to have only Merc 0405 fleets but now with new Scania K230UB fleets.

Maybe service 852, due to the fact that SBST's service 157 which is running parallel already have new Scania K230UB fleets. -

wah...tt guy quite free nowadays...from wdl roam e whole of sg...n heard he broke signal light at ktm railway...record breaker... -
All thanks to National University of Singapore Students Union (NUSSU) who have applied to SBST for dds deployment on service 151.
In my opinion, I still prefer 1 dd to be deployed on service 96.

Don't bother him. I think there are really people in the forum who doesn't behaves. I don't want to mention who. You know who. -

Technically it's possible for 27A and 27B to use DD. Perhaps HGDEP can be more flexible to deploy? -

They don't operate full day. And even the split shifters have to do full S27. You and your day dream. -
