looking at the press release (31 bsep fleet add for 28 services) n e-timetable, this time round 229 317 335 both will get 2 buses as fleet add... dun think they will deploy wright.. so just nice 7 citaro from 6335 to 6341 for 229 284 317 335 while 262 should be getting 6314... so sv50 will be getting wrights n citaro while sv513 will be getting wrights....if 513 is getting citaros, then really no point introducing it at all... defect the purpose of bsep.
Means Sv 513 both trips Wrights is your guess uh?
I'm guessing Wright definitely for 1 trip..not sure if both will be getting Wrights. Because up till now, I only spotted 1 new undeployed Wright in BNDEP so far for the past week. So not sure if BNDEP has enough Wrights for the 2 trips of Sv 513..
and like what you said, they better put Wrights for Sv 513..if not people see the bus packed with standees, sooner or later the demand will drop off also cause everyone wants the seats. Although yeah, they classified it as Express instead of Premium, means standees allowed. But honestly, who wants to stand all the way to CBD right?

there might be another wright hiding somewhere? in the workshop? or that BESP wright for Sv8 might be doing some crossover to Express 513?
if for me, i would rather pay another S$1.00++ more to go via the premium service instead , rather than having to squeeze on citaro? unless wright is deploy..

The Premium Service 736 not operated by SBST?

Like premium 596, operated by million bus pte ltd.
IIRC it was PA7257K which operates premium 596

Because Sv 229, which was mentioned in the SBST release as part of the improved services in the Q4 2012 under BSEP scheme, hasn't gotten any BSEP fleet add yet in case anyone hasn't noticed. Which means the next round, definitely Sv 229 will be getting one otherwise SBST wouldn't have published that.
1 Wright & 1 Citaro to gauge the demand.
513 can get Citaros from 229. -

513 can get Citaros from 229.Are you thinking that the Citaros are full-day? If you're talking about the BSEP ones, then doesn't that defeat the purpose of Sv 229 getting the fleet adds from the same day?

Idk, I think there might be one in the workshop somewhere though. Seems very unlikely that they would pull the Sv 8 Wright over though IMO.

513 can get Citaros from 229.minimally possible, they are both split shifts. but then 229 would not feel the BSEP improvements at all during the most important portion of peak hours.
i think 513 will have a wright for the first trip, citaro for the second.

513 can get Citaros from 229.Just checked with e-timetable. No BSEP crossover from 229 to 513.

Just to follow up on your earlier post, few days ago passed by BNDEP on my way home again. Still only spotted 6335X 6336T parked at Service 3's parking lot, then 1 shiny new Wright parked face-in towards the side closest to PIE.
I spotted it like early afternoon, so the workshop & laid-up area there wasn't any sign of other new Wrights too. Only 1 new Wright in BNDEP up till now. It might get another one in a few days uh~ -

If 1, 513 might be having a citaro and a wright instead.
They might want to see the loading 1st then upgrade it's fleet and maybe let it become full day operation. -

229 is getting 2 BSEP buses la. -
Originally posted by SBS6305H:

Look at 9631 post at the top of page 3 first. -
But, does the buses posted to 513 sleep in depot after service or they go operate on other service??

New Express services are hard to determine the demand.I'll rather have the Wright to put on Express 518, if possible.
