  Bound for Bedok North depot???

   

  I 'm surprised to see only one perm bus for 143 while for the past weeks there were so many Wrights on 143. What happened???

  I think he meant new buses to replace the outgoing 100 VO2xes.

  Most likely will be B9TLs EEVs.

  those wrights are meant for trunk svcs so that those svcs that are not WAB-ed can do so.

  What? What is EEV represented for?

  For me, I prefer to have Scania K310UD or Scania OmniDekka to replace the VOs.

  Don't write off BNdepot as yet, you never know what's going on behind the scene at SBST's headquarters. :)

  I saw there were some off service old leyland DDs parked at SBS HQ near CTE exit to braddell road. So I think some of these buses will get the new buses replacement soon. The new DD on 143 is not at BRBP. Some new DDs at BRBP for service 60.

  Oops, I quoted the wrong post, I thought he was asking whether more Wrights will be perming on 143.

  I don't think 60 needs so many double deckers...

  EEV stands for the new code for EURO V emissions. You can read up in wiki.

  No, had enough of Scanias. More B9TLs or Enviro 500.

  I think SBST should have bought 1100 Scania K310UDs instead of K230UBs. The K series seems to be more comfortable as double deckers rather than single deckers.

  Scania K310UD is a demonstrator in 2010, I don't think SBS Transit had knew this bus in 2006/2007 when Scania K230UB Demonstrator is up on service.

  KMB received their first K310UD demonstrator in 2007, the very same year SBST made the order for 500 K230s. In fact, SBST's order came later than the delivery of the K310 to KMB.

  EEV is not an emission standard but the corresponding emission standards for a vehicle to be classed in this category lie in between Euro V and Euro VI.
