LUH-Horizontal engine
LOH-Vertical engine
Since LOH is a vertical engine, it will take up more space in the passenger cabin than the horizontal LUH used in the NL323Fs, therefore even lesser seats. The component that is taking up cabin space in the A22s and the Euro 5 Citaros is the radiator, not engine.

Thanks,I did saw NL283F in Istanbul also with rear 4 seats configuration just like our A22.
In SBS Transit and SMRT, Do Bus captains / Service leaders have to learn to drive all types of buses (scania k230ub / volvo olympian, DM3500, B9TL, CDGE / mercedes citaro) (single-deck and double-decks) before driving on revenue bus services?
Because there was a case in Hong Kong, Kowloon Motor Bus. A female bus driver didnt know how to operate the new bus model and she even asked where the handbrake was while commencing revenue service.. She was allowed to drive passengers around even though she was not familiar with the bus model. According to Kowloon Motor Bus, the bus drivers are only trained for 18 days and 13 days for drivers with valid bus driving experience before hitting the roads. If im not wrong the bus service was 88X from Shatin to Lam Tin?
another question..
Are Singaporeans allowed to drive cross border bus services 160, 170/170X or 950?

Yes if you volunteer and you will be given special allowances but cross border is majority Malaysian BCs..I know a Malay pakcik stay at Bukit Batok drive 170/170X.

huh? then how? btw, I think I know where SGB and BIS are based. from their photos, both SGB and BIS are based in Jurong West, like me.... seems that Jurong West is the silicon valley of Singapore Bus enthusiasm, as this is where the brains are. :)
not saying I am smart, but yeah, I am quite smart. :)
imagine what we could do if we combine all brains together... :)

You can access their full content without signing up for anything.
I strongly do not recommend "joining" any of these groups unless you are absolutely sure what are you are getting into (which you are probably too young to understand).
In many of these cases, there is no formal membership and there is no additional benefit anyway.

Would have tried thinking of a better answer, but your ego was just so ****ing high to call yourself smart, might as well you go figure it out yourself.
Actually @gekpohboy why even create so many accounts in the first place.. We would know who you are.. All your igns are about the area you live in. For eg JurongWestResident, etc. Even your current ign gekpohboy talks about gek poh in jurong west.

He is already too smart bro why bother?Even if you disclose he will still create another acc if the username is already hot in the list.
Please do not feed the troll. Thanks.
