The thing at the middle of the OC500LE's hub is a Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS). Quite a number of batch 2 OCs's CTIS was removed.
According to a past post by XiaoTaro: the CTIS system is able to monitor and control the tire pressure of each tire (6 in this case) to provide optimal traction and fuel effiency for the vehicle. also the system is able to warn in case of tire puncture or leaking without the SL having to visually check it manually.

SBS's e guide is now 'live' as in updated w/ hol1 freq.
Shocking sia.
Sv 143 JUE > TAP PM peak 12 mins. 162 Shenton Way > YCK PM peak 17 - 18 mins, Sv 14 PM peak no QoS. 154 AM off peak w/ 18 mins freq.
Sv 139 PM peak QoS direction 'twisted'.

funny
like tis hol1 schedule, the 80% QoS think is barely met.

The Singapore VSOs come with CR222LD bodywork. HK B10TLs have a mixture of CR223LD, Wright Explorer and ALX500 bodywork. The key distinguishing feature of the CR222LD and CR223LD bodywork is where the inward slope begins, viewed from the front / rear of the bus.

Oh, I see, thanks for correcting me, the SG B10TLs looks so similar to the HK CR223LD B10TLs, so I got confused.

As for TIB427K to TIB441T, still have enough time (Oct-mid nov 94' batch), so better catch them fast.

Wait wait wait
SMRT has not made any new purchase to replace O405, how to remove them?

The citaro on trial? If they decide to keep that citaro by march and buy a couple of them in then some UDs might get sent for lay-up.
Even if not mercz then they might sent other buses like the Uds for lay-up.
