  But to me the B7RLE's Soon Chow bodywork seems far nicer ... ...

  don't realy want to see Gemilangs to dominate entire Singapore, no matter SBST or SMRT ... ...

  Don't worry, you will still have 200 more ComfortDelgro B9TLs.

  Nope. It is at BRBP awaiting to be sent back to Volvo. It will not do any service anymore, not even BRBP services. It is just stationed at ComfortDelgro, awaiting to get sent back.

  the extension will allow it to continue revenue service beyond demonstrating period. if not, they will simply apply for a special licence for it to be towed or driven to a designated place to lay up.

  ok so what if we know the duty no? Duty type is essential so that ppl can camp for it anytime of the day. But would sane people waste 3h45min camping for a bus? Give duty codes are not useful enough. If its accompanied by timing then I would consider useful. and timing is not just 1 timing somewhere in the early morning and another somewhere in the afternoon. People want full schedule timing so that they know exactly which part of the day they can spare to camp for it.

  Timing is not enough alone. What if the bus is cameoing on another block/timing? Then whatever i said in the previous paragraph is deemed useless. So dont predict the future, predict NOW.

  Body wise only. Its only the front which is attractive. But even so, its not unique, there are much more buses which are nicer looking (due to the height), with the same front.

  Furthermore, the B7RLE Mk IIIs (ie RU4290D and SBS8030L) don't sound nice. The Mk Is and Mk IIs (ie all the others you can find in Singapore) sound nicer and perform just as great, you can't really feel the characteristic of the bus in the Mk IIIs but you can in the Mk Is and IIs.
