  my OC500 summary:

  - 1 demo + 66 units = 67 units in, waiting for next batch in a few moths [cause in stages]
  - 307/811/189/190/67/172/854/851/171 had its perm virus.

  - my prediction: 75/700/853/180/184/178/852 maybe will also kena the virus. hehe

  45G, 46D or 47B. What time did you see the bus? AFAIK there's only SMB47B on 167 today.

  oddly, nobody says the same about being addicted to the Scania K230UB's interior smell :p

  Half OT -> Cuz this still relates to SMRT and SMRT Buses.

  Guys it's very irritating for people to keep referring her as SPH, and her name is Saw Phaik Hwa.

  Also, i observed that many forum members say that Saw Phaik Hwa ruined TIBS's standard,  don't care about the SMRT Buses but focuses on SMRT Trains, go colour her hair and drives mercz sports car but dont care about the buses, Saw Phaik Hwa chooses the bus and the cheap bodywork and skimp to make more profit...Saw Phaik Hwa this, that. "How logical and on what basis can these accusations be?"

  SMRT is a public listed company with shareholders and employees. Saw Phaik Hwa is not the only person aka the ladyboss who makes every single decision within SMRT. If anyone reading this led a large scale project or company before, you'll know what i mean.

  As i had said before if you think you are more capable than Saw Phaik Hwa in managing SMRT Corp and can bring SMRT to your defintion of "becoming a better public transport company under you", i will be glad to see you make your defintion come true.

  To implement a lift is probably abit difficult...i'm not an engineer, but i think there's an easier method. Install an automatic wheelchair ramp at the staircase before OCs get deployed to WRI services.

  Just wait and see....no need to have wheelchair lift at the stairs.

  Very difficult to spot any Merc OC500LEs on service 854 though there's a single perm fleet. All I see are only MB0405s and bendies, sometimes Lance cameos too.
