Does it?
I meant that most buses registered got the whole bus ready for service. Those that are not ready for service yet are doing last-minute preperation before starting service.

The only possible 'R' ending Citaro in the 60xx series for 156 is SBS6025R or SBS6042R from BBDEP/ARBP, as there are no 'R' ending Citaro in the 60xx series from HGDEP.

Sv 358 SBS 6116L (BN 109) Replacing 8661R's timings.

1st Citaro cameo to appear on 358 AFAIK. And to those who get overly excited easily, chill, my 6116L is still happily perm 109. This was a pure cameo.
BCs drove 6116L today like a KUB Euro V though, didn't bother flooring even though he was late. Let it roll only.

6116L also did a cameo on Sv 2 months back previously if anyone remembers.

In fact they are, there's only a handful of services right now that hasn't gotten any Citaro cameos at all so far. There's one such service in Pasir Ris that hasn't gotten any Citaro cameos yet..even 88 has gotten a Citaro before.

Yeah, that was quite obvious isn't it Used to be 358 & 359, at least 6116L did 358 few days back. Not that i want Citaros on 359 though, i prefer a Mk4 to replace 858T due to the crowds during peak hours.

Depends alot on factors such as crush loading and number of passengers on average for the services. If the service itself depends alot on crush loading which requires relatively larger amount of standing space (KUB's vs Citaro's), Citaros are simply not suitable though.

Not to say that they won't get, just that probably some of the services' SLs might prefer KUBs instead so that they can keep up with the timetable instead of waiting for the pax to squeeze into the tight aisle on the Citaros.
