It is interesting to see that in your deployment, you choose to give Citaros to sv 166 and give the WEGs to 136 for crossover.
Originally posted by BusAnalayzer:Should there be a queuing system at Jubilee for sv 50/159 in the morning peak. Saw a sv 50 WEG coming on to the stop, and there were some 50-60 people (mostly students) who boarded the bus at Jubilee. The way people were boarding was quite haphazard because students were just rushing in and I saw an old aunty who was standing at the front of the stop was among the last to enter.
I was surprised to see the huge crowd at Jubilee because mostly I always observe how crowded 72B is at YCK Terminal and thought most people would take the train to YCK rather than AMK to transfer.
May be these are people transfering from buses within AMK Town.
those at jubilee bus stop might be alighting from those AMK interchange service and then walk to the bus stop to transfer... not everyone take mrt.....
Originally posted by BusAnalayzer:Agree. If you read my convo few threads before with Lsk, I have also seen 72A departing YCK Int with 50-60 pax on board many times but he mentioned it could be that it has loading from ITE students as well coz he sees the bus empty towards HG Int. But I think between 07 - 08.30 am the bus does have very high loading because if people take the bus and reach HG Int after 8.30am, they will reach CBD or their offices pretty late. So it is already not the core peak timing in HG area. Even though with 72 now having 05-07 mins morning frequency, it can very well take care of the loading.
This morning do a quick check on 72A and 72 in between 7 15 am -7 45 am @ HG AVE 9 @ around 7 30am saw 3236T on 72A stop @ HG AVE 9 junction waiting to turning to ave 4 abt 20 paxs on this bus Note : no sv 72 or 116 in front of this bus @ dat time then after a few minutes 3194E On 72 Arrived upper & lower deck almost full seating only a few paxs standing following behind is 3303H the loads having the same with 3194 also .
this r what i saw this morning ! ![]()
SBS 3348D & 3617C also seen on 72 this morning ! 3617 was driven by a ancle with white hairs and with white eye brown saw him driving on 9620 b4 i think maybe 9620 now not around for quite some time so this 3617 replacing it @ the moment .

i think ah.... 3236T have actually overtake 3194E...... 3236T should be driven by a lady bc..
and anyway, today also got 3352/3353 back on sv72B... saw 3352 do two trips (808am and around 850am departure). 1st trip is full all the way. 2nd trip top deck around 65% fill ... 3353 did one trip at around 820am.. not sure about those trips that they does at 7-8 though...

maybe ! but the bus b4 this 3236T loading also not dat full only saw around 10 paxs standing on the lower deck dat all @ dat time not like someone said pack to the doors .
i think today after doing 72B This 3352 & 3353 never report to 72 never see them as of now .

I have the same inference like lemon that 3236 must have overtaken 3194 on HG Ave 9. It is unlikely that 3236 will just have 20 pax coming before 3194 and 3194 has 80+ pax. What you could also observe and tell is by taking a bus like 3194 and see how many pax remain on the bus after HG MRT or do they travel beyond. I would say out of the 80-90 pax, 40-50 pax would alight at HG MRT for sure, and the bus will go with 50-55 pax beyond that (assuming few more pax take the bus at HG Ave 4 / HG Central).
Originally posted by lemon1974:those at jubilee bus stop might be alighting from those AMK interchange service and then walk to the bus stop to transfer... not everyone take mrt.....
My initial question is... should we have a queuing system at Jubilee for 50 / 159 / 159B during the morning peak to organize the boarding?
I am also thinking that people must be getting confused whether to take 50/159 or 88 to ITE / AVE 5 considering their stops are separate. I think many people now prefer to take the bus at Jubilee than Ave 3 stop considering the number of people I am seeing at the Jubilee stop these days.
Earlier it was clear, anyone who wanted to go to Ave 5 beyond ITE would always take 88 and not 159 unless they wanted to go to SEAGATE.

This is the fleet add for Sv 39 wef 03 Jun. Compared to 5073H, this bus appeared more consistently for the past 5 weeks on Sv 39. And after cameoing elsewhere, it did back Sv 39 again for an extended period. Should be an S-shift bus because I've spotted it usually only during Peak Hours. Other than this bus, I can't find any other KUB stuck consistently on Sv 39~
SBST website also reflects they did an improvement to Sv 39 under the quarterly bus-svcs review (Apr-Jun 2013), and for Sv 39 they haven't upgraded any SD to DD yet, so for Sv 39 it's definitely a fleet add.
This is the 4 consecutive quarterly-review (that makes up a year-period of the bus-review programme alr - past adds to Sv 39 were in periods of Jun-Sep 2012, Sep-Dec 2012, Jan-Mar 2013) that Sv 39 has gotten a fleet add. Kinda implies how pathetic Sv 39's freq was a year plus ago.
can consider this SBS 6636C perm 101 it already been on this svc for months even also can see it on wkends/PH
And also now this SBS 6606P (159) more like on wkends/PH perm only hardly see it doing on wkdays usually cameo around on other svcs during wkdays !

The frequency of sv 39 had improved quite a bit after the first 2 bus adds. The problem is the peak loading for sv 39 when you can see really long queues at Yishun Interchange where each bus leaves with 50-60 pax in the morning and people at Khatib cannot board the bus. If sv 39 could use DDs, it would have taken care of the peak loading problem but thanks to constraint of Yishun Interchange it cannot, and SBST has had to keep adding on buses to take care of the few time slots in morning peak for loading. sv 39 would have been great with a fleet of 17 buses (5 DDs, 12 SDs).

already transferred long ago. replaced by SBS6000L in return (transferred to BR)
Originally posted by SMB1333T:already transferred long ago. replaced by SBS6000L in return (transferred to BR)
I wonder why they did that? And now 6000L is 232. And BN sent over 9518R to BR to cover 6007T in return. So that slot became a non wab slot again?
Just to clarify
TIB 549S TIB 556X are KJDEP SP//188R
TIB 611U is KJDEP 106/SP
