  I hope the design and engine of both bus companies' Citaros are different, just like the different MBO405 buses that both companies owns.

  I dunno if i'm wrong but it appears to me that one JB-regged Mk-III was seen parked in the compound of Woodlands CIQ with cones surrounding it. I therefore assume this Mk-III is being confiscated as last year, there were reports of a Sv 160 bus being caught smuggling illegal cigarettes.

  178 has atleast amended her schedule 2 times.

  First time was last year september

  Second time was this year march, indirectly doing sundays schedule fleeting wise.

  The normal schedule will only be used on School Holiday, while the current schedule runs indirectly to Sundays one.

  I actually noticed many EEVs in Tampines interchange already have the rear CCTVs. Does the installation limited to the 5k series EEVs???

  ....there's a downroute for 151 towards Kent Ridge along HG Ave 3 at 10+am?

  Its usually done by a K230UB.

  Don't quite get the logic of that and refused to quite believe it although the signs pointed there for some time already, finally confirmed it with my own eyes couple of days ago.

  Good question.

  Its a purple ad KUB.

  Couldn't catch the rego though.

  Not the least because sleep holds priority for longish bus rides.

  I happened to be awake when I saw it in front of my bus at HG Ave 3 despite the fact that I had missed the earlier 151 15 minutes ago. Nor was this a first occurence.

  5237C? Most of the rest of the 151 Ks have the NUS advert.

  Comfort Ultra ad is it?

• SBS2601D

  10 Apr 11, 00:12

  I think so.....?

  I should take a better look before I sleep next time.

  But really, I have doubts in the veracity since it makes little sense for this downroute.

  But no 151s overtook my bus each time, and the earlier 151 had left 15 min earlier as scheduled, yet this KUB appears from time to time in front between KPE exit and HG Ave 3.

  Manual? It's auto, only that it sounds manual.
