  Jumpbus for service? For example I'm a bc of service 24. the order of bus for weekdays is SBS6077R>SBS6078M>SBS8454Y

  For example my first trip, i drive 6077r, next time I drive 6078M, then 8454Y. But sometimes is not like that. For example Im a bc, i know how to drive all types of buses, except KUB. So if my first trip 6077R, i drive 6077R for my whole-day job.

  It is actually due to early retirement. The tender documents had already revealed that the Hinos are to be sent for scrap.

  Why SBS Transit does not convert Volvo Olympian 2-Axle into an air-condition bus.Last time,SBS Transit did converted the non-aircon Mercedes-Benz 0405 into an air-condition bus.So why SBS Transit do not do the same thing to the Volvo Olympian 2-Axle?

  The aircon unit will bee too heavy for the rear axle to handle by itself I think

  Asked SBST JE management 2 years back. He said if install the panels it will be too heavy and the bus might collapse. Plus it is a DD. For SD it's ok cause it's not so bulky like the DD.
