No doubt about it. I saw it too. I posted it under the thread 'Anything that caught your eyes on the roads' page 13 or 14Originally posted by TIB822C:Hey there everyone...
Yesterday when I was at Chinatown, I saw a Service 190 bus, TIB552G in a very strange EDS type. The type of EDS is similar to those Volgrens and Habit types... Strange isn't it?
Is the side EDS or the front EDS? I know several O405s had their front EDS changed to the LED type (similar to the "Citaros", Habits and Volgren Bendies).Originally posted by TIB822C:Hey there everyone...

Agreed, however for the side EDS, the service number should preferbly be on the left side.Originally posted by SBS9818A:I'd prefer the LED type, easier to see, but the best EDS still goes to the Tridents.
What do you mean, 80 SENGKANG instead of SENGKANG 80?Originally posted by tranquilice:Agreed, however for the side EDS, the service number should preferbly be on the left side.
I think he meant that. Yes, I was thinking the side EDS should display "80 SENGKANG" instead of "SENGKANG 80".Originally posted by SBS9818A:What do you mean, 80 SENGKANG instead of SENGKANG 80?
Yes, for the side EDS on Tridents, service number should ideal be on the leftOriginally posted by SBS9818A:What do you mean, 80 SENGKANG instead of SENGKANG 80?
It'd be nicer if it just displayed 80.Originally posted by tranquilice:Yes, for the side EDS on Tridents, service number should ideal be on the left80 SENGKANG, as the number is near the entrance.
It will look empty with just a number, unless it uses those like Tibs side EDS.Originally posted by SBS9818A:It'd be nicer if it just displayed 80.
Yes, those kind will be good, leave it LED type.Originally posted by tranquilice:It will look empty with just a number, unless it uses those like Tibs side EDS.
But I think SBST won't replace them.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Yes, those kind will be good, leave it LED type.
It's just a simple reprogramming of the software.Originally posted by tranquilice:But I think SBST won't replace them.
But in my view, it will be very ugly with just "80" instead of "80 SENGKANG".Originally posted by SBS9818A:It's just a simple reprogramming of the software.
That's what they did for 2779A.Originally posted by tranquilice:But in my view, it will be very ugly with just "80" instead of "80 SENGKANG".
Only "153" as side desto?Originally posted by SBS9818A:That's what they did for 2779A.
Correct. They covered up the rest of the desto except for the numbers "153".Originally posted by tranquilice:Only "153" as side desto?
They used to have 80 SENGKANG, when I saw it on Christmas Eve the side desto displayed MER.Originally posted by off_service:Correct. They covered up the rest of the desto except for the numbers "153".
Why covered up? Trying to hide something?Originally posted by off_service:Correct. They covered up the rest of the desto except for the numbers "153".
Perhaps to hide away their "laziness".Originally posted by tranquilice:Why covered up? Trying to hide something?"153 HOUGANG CENTRAL" will be nicer than just "153".
Laziness to re-program?Originally posted by off_service:Perhaps to hide away their "laziness".
Got no idea lah. Yes, 153 HOUGANG CENTRAL would be quite nice, pity they love doing all sorts of nonsense.Originally posted by tranquilice:Why covered up? Trying to hide something?"153 HOUGANG CENTRAL" will be nicer than just "153".
