So long as 88 has a DD-majority fleet like now, that's good enough.
Same goes for those who are constantly moaning about 161.
Spare a thought for services like 74. If a B10M turns up, its practically the end of the world for many of us. Unfortunately 74 still has a significant SD fleet for its high load.
74 deserves Wrights and Citaros! It was NEGLECTED for a long with VO2X! -
You are mad.
Citaro is as useful on 74 as a van on 96.

while 74 has 40 over buses and you expect them to deploy SD citaro on it during peak! U must be mad.
-
No seriously, why did I bother even to entertain such people.
Banish that thought!
-
COME ON. 74 DOESNT DESERVE CITAROS.
74 NEEDS LONDON BUSES THAT ARE DD, LONG AND ARTICULATED.
~Hopefully this ends the war between 52 and 74. -
what kind of van you want? I drive a liteace and call at the NTUC bus stop with a paper putting 96 in front ok?Originally posted by SBS2601D:You are mad.

Dude, 88 is not WAB yet because of the boarding berth problems IIRC for its possible PIWs in TPY Int. So that's why 88 & 28 has no Wrights as of yet, because they are lower down on the priority list compared to other services. And that is why BRBP has not been getting newer Wrights to put on these 2 services even though they have an abundance of KUBs, CDGE B9s (for Sv 88), and Citaros (for Sv 28)

Hey may I know what do you mean by this ? Are you trying to say 96 is crowded or not crowded?

He is trying to say that putting a van on 96 with that ridiculous small capacity to serve the huge demand 96 has, is like trying to stuff more and more sardines into a fixed can. Better now?
And also 74's huge crowding problems would be worsened if they deploy the Citaros (for people who don't understand what 'SBS2601D' had posted). -

I want the Kangoo.
Its pretty zippy and has got foldable seats for the rear cabin.

Anyone who has seen how the VOs crawl up the NUS slopes would marvel at the kind of punishment the THD series engines can take.

I believe 96 will get Wrights together with 151 as well since 95 got Wrights already.

151 already have WEGs camoing on it. I saw tons of them departing to Kent Ridge from Hg Int. What's more, SBS MAY HAVE PLANS TO MAKE SVC 43 ANOTHER DD SERVICE AND INTRODUCING 43A FROM PUNGGOL INT TO NEX. CAUSE SOMEONE UPLOADED A 43 ON VO3X AND THE FRONT DESTO BOARD IS FULL - THE FULL DESTO BOARDS MEANT THAT THEY ARE FOR VO3X THAT MAY CAMO/PERM 43. 43 ACTUALLY CAN BE SPLIT INTO 2 SVCS BUT SBS DECIDED TO COMBINE TOGETHER. Full desto boards means DD because it is different from a SD desto board - DD desto board is larger, SD desto board smaller.THERE are also reports of svc 156 becoming DD also. My friend spotted a Vo3x on 156. 159 WILL NEVER BE A DD SERVICE for those who kept on saying it has alot of ppl. Why? HEIGHT RESTRICTION! Remember it goes UNDERNEATH the CTE in order to go into Lorong Chuan? There the height limit is like 2.6~4.1m. So if a DD is made on to it, it can ONLY deploy on 159A which serves until Lorong Chuan - 1 way. Btw the height restriction only affects 159 travelling from TPY to SENGKANG.

You are really a genius. You seems to know a lot of things.

But there's something strange. The maximum height of the shelter at Sengkang East Way bus stop (Sengkang MRT Station) towards Punggol Rd is only 3.7m, yet 161 can still use DDs. Does anyone know why?

Our Braddell Interchange is screwed up due to the height restrictions on the lane going to Lorong Chuan. So if you want DD on 105 and 159 must close down Central Expressway from Braddell Road to AYE after COI for MRT, failing which it will be barred from using DD. -
Please want DD on 105 and 159 and try to cameo it now!

Ok. 105 and 159 had DDs before, use your time machine to ask for 105 and 159 to have DDs.
