  least there's buses to go ard and have additional S shifts created here and there.

  Give me a KUB or B9TL than gotta wait for 2 - 3 buses aft 20 mins to board 1 Citaro. Can't even get to work on time, enjoy simi Citaro to a typical Singaporean.

  Now still trying Citaro seriously is too late. SMRT is not going to meet e 40% WAB requirement needed by another 148 more days.

  Even so, e Citaro would have to be modified i.e. WAB area and so on.

  LTA said it is having all buses on the road WAB by 2020

  TIB1025E has a very nice weird sound (Sounds like a Acura NSX in Forza Motorsports 2)

  I also notice that TIB438D and TIB473B are almost identical in any ways (E.g: Engine sound,doors closing signal,bus stopping bell) almost everything,except exterior and EDS.

  Yesterday where TIB 781L (on 178) was supposed to start at 1803, it went back to WLDEP, not sure why, But I don't see issues when I boarded it at Boon Lay Interchange yesterday.

   

  TIB 666L always clocked in early, While 654X had to do Off Schedule at the expense of 666L from Woodlands Interchange.

  May be it shouldn't be starting at 1803 but ending at 1803?

  The one starting at 1803 on 178 is the AM11/PM11 slot, which is the second to call quits from Wodlands.
