  3912A, no.

  for 3911C case it shld be considered refurbished since there are black rubbers at both sides of the bus.

  Population of SBST O405s in Boon Lay Int is dying.... Just looking at those KUB slowly overthrowing the O405's empire of 154, 157, 174, 199, 240, 242 and 243 is heart-wrenching.

  Svc 174 replace too much liao. BNL still got many ma. no of merc balance quite balance wit the no of K230UB. But I cant say anything when the new 400 batch come in next year. I always get complain when K230UB come, huh? dun need to seat liao.

  Since you are Merc sick, I recommand you to take one of my 3 my favourite service. Express 502A. Extended express route of Express 502. Can satisfy your needs of Merc and it can brighten up your mood to go to Orchard Rd/Suntec City due to its very long express route. From Jurong West non-stop to Orchard Rd. You can't get this kind of service elsewhere that deploys Merc, you know.

  sv51 best, jus wait for one day when merc cameo. 2hrs 10mins of single trip merc ride, for sure you'll be satisfied. Not enough? Take that merc back to your starting point.
