  Not the first time. 7725Y did Sv 8 before from BN side + another 2 which I can't remember which (I think one was 3006R or something), BRBP side IIRC one of the Sv 154 Wrights did do Sv 8 before. So both sides did have Wright cameos..

  Another one which I took was SBS7680S which was from Svc 10. And I saw it another time on svc 8 some other day. Anyways how about the CDGE B9TL? I only saw it on svc 8 once when they were new and the other time last year.

  CDGE B9TL a couple of times, mostly BNDEP side though. I haven't heard of any BR-side CDGE doing Sv 8 lately..

  Right not HG & BB has a whole lot of adless VO3x Batch 1s if you do realise. Like those from Sv 65 are just waiting for the time to go over cause they're are adless, and new ads on Sv 65 if you noticed went to the VO3x Batch 2s & 3s instead. Hmm.

  N113CRB- Another unique bus...

  LO3X- Those chiongster and hardworking DDs...

  VO2X- Better not take 'em away now...

  VO3X- Don't u dare do anything to my SBS9222T!!!

  SBST at least buy Enviro500 and 200, or isit plug doors too expensive and dunno how to handle and maintain them well due to lack of experience, mechanics and knowledge with them???!!!!!!!

  Buses come and go. They can't be there forever. At least many of them have extended to 19 years of lifespan.

  Last time those old SBS buses like Mercedes Benz OFs, O305s, Leyland Atlanteans, Volvo B57s, Albion Vikings, etc all only have 12 years lifespan. Even shorter years to take them.

  Grow up sia.

  The buses bought in the 90s are good quality and built to last.

  While many of them are almost up for their lifespans, they are still in relatively good conditions. Can run till at least 22 to 25 years.

  It is rather wasteful if these buses are allowed to run for 12 to 15 years only.

  But unlike those buses bought in the 70s and 80s la...

  15 the best la bro,Modern buses and bodywork nowadays will make you drool and that's the time you start to feel bored for the bus.Hope LTA will allow new bodywork if buses reach 17 years for refurbishment and extension in future...I sense SMRT will be MANs,MBs and probably another renowned brand after the DAF/Scania/Dennis/Hinos is retired
