  Eh bro Budep havent control Bpj svc yet.Wldep and Wlbp is the same so its only Wldep and Kjdep and still Eunos break the record. Wanna ask the pros here,The OC500LE natural aspirated or turbocharged engine..For a 12 liter engine with only 292hp/1250nm i dun think its turbo

  No la..Wlbp and Cgbp is only a sub bus park for these two depots due to the maximum crunching that theyre facing previously..They still refuel,bus wash and do maintenance thereunlike Arbp and Brbp where they also got their own fuel islands,bus wash and minor maintenance routine..Only major repairs go to their big brother place

  The correct way is Bndep/Cgbp,Wldep/Wlbp where Arbp and Brbp can use as separate entity.

  Best is take 904 to WRI and then take 168 directly to Tampines. Fastest and assured place to sit.

  I find Taros to be quite cold. VOs are managable. Some Mk IVs can be very cold.

  @DD77: guess I am not one of them. Oh well, I shall just endure.

  Anyway, I have another question about the aircon. Lets say that all available aircon ducts are blocked apexcept for one. Will that duct's aircon be very strong and very cold? Since there is only one exit instead of multiple exits on bus aircon system.

  With much aircon pumped inside the aircon duct, aircon duct would be super cold... Aircon flow usually not affected by outlet count...

  Very Strong: Yes, all the aircon is concentrated into one outlet. Since the fan would still be moving the same amount of air, all the air has to exit at one place.

  Very Cold: Depends. On every bus there is a thermostat that measures the temperature within the bus. Normally this is near or inside the "aircon filter". This controls the power of the aircon by making it colder if it is not cold enough. So, if the outlet that you have left open is far away from the thermostat, the aircon will try to make itself colder and colder.

  It is turbocharged, the hLA stands for Turbocharged + Intercooled engine.

  For Mercedes, A = turbocharged, L= intercooled, a combination means it is turbocharged and intercooled.

  Isn't Service 161 full WAB? Why are there so many non-WAB slots on SBST timetable?

• SBS3004X

  Service 74 is still non-WAB? The new timetable does not reflect any WAB slots.
