2 new regoless shiny Citaros parked at Service 3's parking lot again today in BNDEP. Spotted them while taking Sv 17 home. Sandwiched between 6335X 970B to their right, while 6317Z 914P were to the 2 new Citaros' left.
Think it's preparing for the next round of BSEP in early Jan. Typically a time frame of 2 weeks+ from me spotting the new Citaros in BNDEP before they are deployed out on service. Took this average time from the previous times I spotted 6305H (1st round), 6315D-6317Z (2nd round) and then the latest round of 6335X 6336T. Can go figure out when the next round of BSEP will likely be.
One of the citaros changed position of parking when I passed by BNDEP ytd...

Is this seriously true? LOL. They haven't even plugged the gap from 6282 to 6284 & 6286 to 6299. Then they want to reg under 66xx series?
I hope they do plug the gap for the 62xx series soon. BNDEP & AMDEP needs more Citaro SPs for those Citaro-laden services, putting SP KUBs will do too but I observed that it tends to screw up the freq on certain services with super-tight freq.Can't help thinking how long AMDEP wants to put 6205M as SP after so many months. That bus is like, an outcast.
Have the 629_ series registered yet?They were spotted in the dealer premises weeks back.

U GOTTA BE KIDDING ME?!?!?! 66xx series??? WTF is going on with the registration nos.? are these BSEP buses going to be also?
Likely not BSEP buses, cos BSEP buses get their regos at the very last minute, these could be another batch by SBST themselves...

Could be true, plus maybe its another batch for SBST, these are not BSEP...

I mean SBS Transit might have purchased more Citaros between 2011 and 2012 without announcing it on the press release.

SBST wont do things secretly unlike the other company..... they already announced that the next batch will start delivering early next year.. so where got secret batch?

SBST should order extra Citaros to replace those KUBs on domestic services that may go on 160/170 next time. Don't think the JB DM3500s can be swapped out with KUBs without destroying WAB quotas, unlike swap out MK3 with DM3500 a year ago.
