Whats the load like for 106? Healthy? Empty? Scrappable?Originally posted by tranquilice:I took service 97 yesterday (27 July), the LO 3-axles was very empty from Jurong East all the way to Marina Centre.
Noticed that the fleet of both services 97 and 111 are still using double deckers, I have not seen any single deckers yet. Service 106 is still using bendy buses.
Service 106 ply Temasek Blvd and Temasek Ave towards Marina Centre terminal, however, towards Orchard, it does not ply the above-mentioned roads but Raffles Ave instead.
I was at the bus stop opposite Marina Square cineplex, 3 service 106 bendy passed by but nobody boarded them. As for the rest of the route, I dunno.Originally posted by AntiDennisLance:Whats the load like for 106? Healthy? Empty? Scrappable?
Actually, I dont really see how 106 can fare any better than 77. Commuters in Bukit Batok and Buona Vista who might take 106 to Orchard are in fact mostly already taking the MRT.Originally posted by tranquilice:I was at the bus stop opposite Marina Square cineplex, 3 service 106 bendy passed by but nobody boarded them.

The load on sv 106 isn't that fantastic. Apart from SP students and some office workers, most of the time outside peak hours it's rather empty.Originally posted by tranquilice:I was at the bus stop opposite Marina Square cineplex, 3 service 106 bendy passed by but nobody boarded them.

I know TIB 951 P is on svc 985.Originally posted by AntiDennisLance:Anybody saw any bus on 985? Any regos known yet?
Just seeing a Sv. 985 bus makes my blood boil. Most of you should know the reason why.Originally posted by off_service:I know TIB 951 P is on svc 985.
The fleet consists mainly of some ex-989 O405s and some Volgren Hinos.
Yes, last Monday for the very FIRST time I got on a 3-axle VO on Sv. 74, not too bad. Performance-wise along Lornie Rd was, ugh!Originally posted by Zilchster:Heya,
Took Svc74 today...SBS 9533 or what in the morning...
It seems that Svc 74 and Svc 165 have started to get more air-conditioned buses in their fleet...as for wat kind...prob a mix lar...it's almost two aircon then one non-aircon bus on 74...
I guess the buses came from the amended services...
I believe some excess Scanias are transferred to AMKDEP as there is not enough space for them to go BRAM.Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:Some Scania OAC and CAC buses from Bedok (THAnKS GOODNESS !! ) has been transferred to braddel (OAC) and CAC (AMK) . Someone saw about 20 CAC scanias in AMK .
Yes, SBS 707X is a HGDEP guy and is perm on Sv. 156! It was my only favourite Mk III, considering I treat them with disdain. Now it's gone, time to drool over SBS 2747 of Sv. 156Originally posted by TIB1186Z:Well I guess u are unlucky, considering VO 3-Ax are common on svc 74, and my experience on them were rather good.
Well, I am pleased to announce that 2 AC buses had somewhat replaced 2 VO-2Ax on svc 74 today. I am very certain that they come from the amended services. They are:
SBS707X and,
at least another Mk III which rego I can't catch.
Moreover, a Scania CAC appeared on svc 70 today, and svc 80 seem to have quite a bit of Tridents today.
