As on today,SG5063Z the lone SMRT B9TL is still at Loyang Depot.
Originally posted by carbikebus:AFAIK there are two sides,A portion say they rather maintain those E500s because its easy to pass smoke test during inspection but again they told engine tuning is quite difficult(Don't really know what he meant by that).One ex-SMRT technical supervisor he doesnt like MAN because of smoke test after 2-3 years on the road.Out of 10 sure 2-3 will fail..Have to replace the EGR exhaust filter and involved some soot cleaning inside the exhaust system which is quite tedious and he rather GA take E500s over the MANs.Before he left SMRT WLDEP he say WLDEP trying hard to get rid off the E500 to other depots but was rejected due to insufficient DDs.
There is no escaping this issue once Euro 6 kicks in (NEA says its Jan 2018, so around a year odd left). Most manufacturers are forced to use SCR+EGR for Euro 6, whether its MAN, Mercedes, Volvo, Scania or Cummins.
SG1047-1049 (white front and rear, SBST sides) debuted 860 today. Small red SMRT logos on front and rear. Reportedly SBST stickers still inside.
1050 debut 803 same thing as the others on 860

The transferred ones should be replacing the volgrens especially from SMB192P-SMB206J keep an eye for any instructors handbrake/chair or L Plates installed.
Originally posted by Sbs6750E:Sv 860 is the dumping ground for SMRT Citaros ah?
Maybe because 860 also under Seletar package mah so its better to deploy those SG Citaros since Amdep doesnt have enough SG A22s.

None have them. Those Volgrens are still doing TRG as per usual
Better to put this way,10 A22s especially those ever involved in an accident.4 SMB Citaro and 2 OCs.

Maybe the one at Wlbp transfered over there since Loyang didn't have any A95 transfered out also,Still got 18 A95s..
I might think that SG5085-5127 is for Woodlands.I got a feeling they will get some Taros too.

SG5120S not yet transferred, the other two maybe skip for some time. Wait for the next wave of registration.

Wow it is actually enough to make all SMRT svc WAB
They can make those bendies retire early. Time to throw some DD on intratown n feeders.
did Lta /smrt only order 60 A95? Cos the rego just nice start from 5740 n end at 5799.
it is weird that some of the A95(5740 till 5760) cost around $600k. While the newer one cost around 430K. Not sure why the big difference in OMV.
