Yeah well.....I took 601S the other day on 156.
The BC had the bad habit of lifting his foot up at once the moment he had to stop.
People who drive manual cars will know the effect. Especially with lower gears and high rpm.
i once took 2694K on 82... the bus itself was actually good but the BC spoilt it by making the bus jerk too much. not sure how she did it either...

VOLVO BUS B9TL Recall
Fire may occur
VOLVO BUS announced a problem with the B9TL affecting a total of 1,600 vehicles.
It has been identified that water can enter the engine bay, via the nearside air cleaner filter panel, and ingress into the top alternator. This can then cause the bearing to fail, which leads to an internal short circuit, and in extreme cases, possibly a fire.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Recall affected vehicles and fit a water trap to prevent water ingress into the alternator.the recall happened last year but i am wondering if our B9TLs are involved in the recall?

Most likely rectified. That might explain why the long drag of the registration of the first 150 buses for almost 9 months. -

until now, i still dun understand the logic of deploying KUB on Sv100. first service from HGDEP to get KUB, and yet till now 4 years later, still not WAB service. Might as well transfer all the KUB out to other HGDEP services and make other service WAB instead, then lesser complain from those HG residents...
Sv100 even get so called fleet upgrade and dump all the Batch 1 KUB to SLBP and get in newer KUBs? wat is the logic ah? Why must HGDEP dump all the Batch 1 KUB elsewhere? Just keep it lah and dump MK3 elsewhere... just because batch 1 less seats?
and i really pity those Woodlands Resident. at least HG/SK side got 8 WAB services from HGDEP and lots of others that pass through (sv3/53/72/86/136) etc... look at Woodlands? How many WAB service? ONE......serving the entire estate....
just like what i say earlier, AMDEP/SLBP use the N113/O405 for almost 19 years without fleet upgrade....so naturally they will get the new buses first.... when the time for MK3 to go come, new buses will definitely be deployed on other services...
aiyo my boy, svc 3 does NOT pass through SK/HG lah...

I think we can hope for that now, considering the new int height, and the incoming 450 Wrights, some of them may eventually find their way into 109.
