  Hope it get repair soon and would be as new as SMB134H. Why SMB134H? It is because SMB134H always get repaired asap, seems to me that WLDEP took good care on SMB134H.

  haha seems that WLDEP had its own pampered bus similar to KJDEP. KJDEP's pampered bus is SMB88H (: You wont see any dirt or rubbish inside this bus. this bus frequently gets its wheels repainted (now colgate white), interior cleaned (twice as cleaner than other OCs) & even the windows are thoroughly washed!

  not sure whether is this the correct place to post this. well...

  witness a bus fan onboard sv133 5075C last friday (30 april), around 2130 dep amk int. i'm totally disgusted by his behaviour inside the bus. he was standing at the front, talking to the driver in a tone where everyone in the bus can hear, used hokkien words like tmd and with lots of hand gesture in a know-it-all attitude.

  i'm sure he is a bus fan as i saw a notebook with rego of idk cameo or rides written in it. he alighted at amk ave 6. i look around and observe most of the passenger inside the bus was with a "who-the-hell-is-he-and-what-is-he-doing" look."

  i don't know anyone in this forum. so (no offence) i was wondering is this attitude common among bus fans? i hope not. but i just feel so disgusted by his actions.

  Not sure if anyone noticed,  But the weekend where 178 gets mercz on a full day slot, 966 gets Scanias on a full day basis though, even though scanias on 966 isn't rare, 645Y,663U and 664S are the ones that did 966 full day before.

  fleets not coming in order aside, previously i had waited for 178 to come and it came 45 long farking hot minutes @ Woodlands Road near the DTL Depot. 178's frequency really screwed up these days.

  Which part of the day did you wait for 178?

  Friday, waited for 803H on 178, and guess what, when 666L and 667J came, didn't see this bus at all, and in the end OS-ed until Taman Jurong, then head back to Boon Lay.

  Saturday, waited for 730J on 178, but 564Y came first. In the end OS-ed to batok then back to Boon Lay.

  It has to be the traffic situation at Upper Bukit Timah area, No wonder why so long.
