So bus A replace bus B = bus B going scrapping? What kind of logic is that?
87B got at least 5-6 months more... and currently it seems like it's not heading for de-registration anytime soon. Sticking to Sv502 recently.
Please lah... use your common sense.

What did they say about SBS87B?
Originally posted by chickenlittle2:

means this deployment is requested by 240 sv leader for the change.
Some of the mercs will be leaving this year even after extention
if I'm not wrong, SBS82P is the first one ?
haha

If Voith Mercs are not well liked in amdep, what do you think slbp drivers would do, considering that they are not as well adapted to the buses as the amdep drivers? Maybe send back amdep

unlikely. why would they want to keep a bus which BCs say is not good, and somemore, near lifespan expiry?
it would be a waste of resources maintaining this bus then.
My opinion is rather to send it to e scrayard n earn some cash.

BC say not good =/= depot send bus to scrap. In fact whether a bus is good or not depends on the BC's own feeling & opinions.
0471A 0472Y 0475P refurbished.
I muz say only particularly SBS 87B, 88Z, 92K is nt very up to standard but others transferred eariler are good like SBS 180P, 187X, 193C, 290E.
SBS432M successor SBS441L will be the last 3 Merc to be deregistered. WAHAHAHA!!! Mr Rajan will be the last Express 502 BC to drive a merc. WAKAKAKA!!! I welcome SBS441L to be my favourite merc from now onwards. =D Haha, my laughter too evil!!!!!

Yeah, I've taken SBS432M almost every friday afternoon to Plaza Singapura and I know that this bus is really a good bus in terms of its air-con, speed and condition. I will be taking SBS441L on friday, shall try whether this bus can live up to the standard of SBS432M. See whether I got any luck whether Mr Rajan is on the P shift. hehe

I meant that other Express 502 BC might be driving other model of bus instead of Merc 2 years down the road.
And no, I do not know all of Express 502 BC. I only know 4 BC from Express 502. 2 of them driving SBS9090G in different shift. Another BC is a S shift driving SBS556P, he is a young BC who loves to chiong on the roads and he's very friendly and lastly Mr Rajan driving SBS441L.

Reading chickenlittle2's post and your post about SBS432M really makes me feel very sad.
and both your posts really shows that SBS432M has served Express 502 well.but what to do.the best buses always go first.
anyway,farewell to SBS432M again.
u really left a such a good impression in your passenger's hearts and we will always miss your services to Express 502.![]()

it seems that SBST is recruiting only youngsters to be BC.(so that they can be strong enough to push PIW into the WAB)

Oh.i understand now.so he is really gifted to be the last driver to drive SBS441L which will be the last 3 Merc to be deregistered.and that young BC's desire to chiong matches greatly with the speed of the Merc and that just suits Express 502 greatly which requires a lot of chionging.i cant imagine when the young BC's desire to chiong combines with the speed of the Merc.it will be very fantastic man.BTW,Mr Rajan's perm bus last time was SBS432M ah?and now his perm bus is SBS441L?

Yup. Mr Rajan is currently perm SBS441L. SBS432M is his previous perm bus. BTW, the young BC who drives SBS556P on S shift is the only one in Express 502 BC who only knows how to drive SBS8030L from what he told me. Hmmm, was thinking whether will he bring down the SBS8030L to do Express 502. Nah impossible, me too much thinking of little puffy rainbow land.

I saw a very young chinese BC on svc 38 today.he was driving SBS599R.so young man.he looks just around 20+ years old.and he is very tall also.and he stepped the pedal very hard to chiong.
