  I took the Scania K230UB demo just now, SBS8033D.

  It sounded so different from the other KUBs. May I know what transmission and engine it uses differently from the other 1100 brothers???

  Anyway the seats are more comfortable using the old Volgelstize seats.

  Yes, even though it is at HG majority of the day, it is a BNDEP bus, it is at HG just for maintance.

  nope.. by ComfortDelgro Engineering. the bodywork looks similar to the new MCV double deck, which was originally a PSV product so the bodywork may have been from PSV as well.

  But is it true that it was designed and assembled under Wright bus supervision?

  And is it related to MCV?

  what happened to the hydrogen fuel cell bus? Has SBST stopped the ownership transfer to them already?

  It's still at its NTU holding area (I think so...). My guess SBST is gonna reject the trial because of high operating costs.

  Just a question. Are the B10M Mk3s speed-limited? I took 804Z and it went really fast (and really loud, too!) on the expressway!

  Thanks!

  For WLDEP bus services (167,856 and 859) that park at SEDEP during Split break, If I come back with a different bus does that mean I take that bus for the latter part of the shift?

  eg morning I take TIB751Z on S106 856 for morning but come back with another bus , while TIB751Z do another S-shift on another service(eg switches to 859 for the later part of S-shift), and I come back with TIB756K does that mean I take 756K to start as 856 S106?

  They are speed limited, but some can go at most, 65km/h? Downslope maybe 70.
  804Z has been a powerful bus all along.

  Thanks! It seemed much faster compared to a euro-5 KUB!
