I do not see a need to increase fare so much just to buy new buses, the KUBs had been already paid and in the near team jus the mk3 is going off and leylands, it should not be much to replace this bus, i seriously dun know what is the agenda of Raymond Lim???

thats all i would say for now
Awesome, hopefully SBST can purchase the double decker with Alexander Dennis bodywork, whatever Trident or B9TL chassis~~ -
I hope SBST stop its superstitions! I'm sick of the omission of the last rego ending with 4 for the new Scania buses!

In fact SMRT is already at risk by putting 9 perm OC500LEs on service 851 and another 2 or 3 on service 67 which also passes by the same bus stop as service 980. -

Suspended for 2 days only next week... -
More instances of Dennis Lances, Scania L113CRLs running on SMRT NRs rather than always using just O405s most of the time.

Now 11 perm OC500LEs for service 851 to be exact, after SMB37E and SMB38C comes in. Perhaps some bendies from services 811/854 could swop with Merc OC500LEs on service 851 on Sundays, another advantage is that bendies can take more passengers.Think WLDEP should rope in more CAC Scania ELBOs on service 980 on Sunday nights. Let the Bangala Indians have a bumpy and stuffy ride back to Upp Thomson and Sembawang areas. Skali they open windows on the buses...
-
851 is getting a full OC fleet...All the bendies will be gone.

Then where will the perm bendies go? Service 980? WLDEP? -
Originally posted by TIB1018B:

My speculation is that all the Mercs will go to WLDEP or SP. Bendies may just head to 980 and other services in AMDEP.
