  Even Chitson Transport don't want the OC as well?

  Seems like after TP1854's incident, seems like nobody wants it anymore...

  But first, how do you know that Chitson is ordering this bus even if the livery is almost like Chitson?

  It is NOT almost like Chitson. It has Chitson company details ON the livery.

  1) Are you referring to the bus information system? I guess Jurong East installed it... and several other interchanges have it... go explore around. Boon Lay, Clementi, Ang Mo Kio, Senkang, Punggol to name a few.

  2) Don't understand your question...

  Just asking, when, where, and how can I catch the remaining demonstrator buses in Singapore? Though I have rode on many of them before, I want to give them a proper ride-through again, and maybe take some photographs. I don't want to end up regretting again lest something happens to them like what happened to SBS 9888Y ._. .

  The ones I know are:

  • SBS 997A (Volvo B10M Mark IV 14.5-metre version) - route 62 (rode it on the old route 62 from New Bridge Road to Hougang South)
  • SBS 8030L (Volvo B7R) - route 174 (rode it on route 174 twice)
  • SBS 8031J (MAN 18.240 HOCL-NL) - route 6
  • SBS 9810X (Volvo Super Olympian with LED Display) - route 31
  • SBS 9889U (Volvo Super Olympian with ComfortDelGro Engineering prototype bodywork) - route 166 (rode it when it was on route 147)
  • SBS 8033D (Scania K230UB demonstrator version) - route 183 (rode for a short journey when it was on route 174)
  • SBS 1688K (Volvo B10BLE diesel-engine version) - route 163 (rode it several times before)
  • TIB 905Y (Hino HS3KRKA) - route 941
  • TIB 838H (Mercedes MB O405G Hispano MK 1 demonstrator version) - route 172
  • TIB 890E (Mercedes MB O405G Hispano MK 1 with seats with headrests) - route 300
  • TIB 1024H (Mercedes MB O405G Volgren demonstrator version) - route 913 (rode it when it happened to cameo on route 859)
  • SMB 135E (Yutong ZK6126) - route 854

  Entries in bold are buses I have never rode before.
