It seems that now sv 107 is running at a loss. -
How far do u agree? I think its kinda breaking even as the demand is SLIGHTly better than the serangoon 107.Originally posted by off_service:It seems that now sv 107 is running at a loss. -

What about service 960?Originally posted by SBS9818A:Sv. 190 is a TIBS cash cow. SBST cash cows are any service with lots of pax but not using DDs, like Sv. 36 -
Scania, may I know why you hate SBST soooooo much???
-
85 a cash cow?
Honestly, the demand fell by 70% right after NEL started. During the last few months, frequency was 14-20 mins
As for 105, yes it is super high during peak hrs but during off peak some of the trips are very miserable.
As for 33, 130, I am hearing from those who knows the demand. From which, I may add it in.
Anymore, before I update the section again? -
960 is a cashcow in my list.
-
Yes,even after the rathole opened but the crowd is normally in the Hougang Sengkang areaOriginally posted by th1988:85 a cash cow -
81, 82, 85, 97, 106 and 111 were the real cash cows of NE-corridor when they went from the NE to the city, whlie as for 103, it isn't really a cash cow from the city execpt during the weekends.
-
cck_190, SBS Trash*t disconnected Singapore;s NE-corridor from the city leaving only a few miserable services to the city, and whats more it made feeder service merge and making them into the so called trunk services extorting Singaporeans' money, so I hate it.Originally posted by cck_190:Scania, may I know why you hate SBST soooooo much???
TIBS only disconnected 1 service called 989.
SBS transh* t--->Diconnecting Singapore and extorting Singaporeans' money. -
Sv. 107 has slightly more demand after the extension. For instance when it went to Serangoon, it sometimes had empty O405s. Now at least the VOs and the Mk IVs are half-full.

9818,
107 didn't have 0405 on the last fewv mths with Ctrl. 0405 were like 90 deployed on Sun/ PH
107 was a 100% CRB service. -
Explain SBS 581R then. A reregistered N113CRB ah?Originally posted by th1988:9818,

Weekdays, you will never find 0405 on 107.
As for 581, maybe one of the CAC CRBs went down. -
I'm positive that I saw an O405 on Sv. 107 every time I went to SGN Int.Originally posted by th1988:Weekdays, you will never find 0405 on 107.

Is it on an weekend?
Weekend uses 0405 from other services -
I think there's around 2 or 3 Mercedes, besides the dominating number of Scanias.Originally posted by th1988:Weekdays, you will never find 0405 on 107.

I think it was 547R or 547G...not sure...but this bus was a regular for a while

806*** You seem to have forgotten my dear service 806! This is a confirmed cash cow during week days, and have the highest frequency of Bendys during the morning peak to avoid bursting the bus! No other service in Yishun warrants a Bendy every 3mins in the morning due to their loads. Even svc804 pales in comparison.Originally posted by th1988:Now for Tibs services, I have to go around to take a look

*** Comfirmed, it is a cash cow!
But for 190, I have wished SBS operate it as their arragement was better and 100% ADD instead of Tibs 80% Bendies. Also ADDs are better espically on PIE/ BKE as most pax has seat than the bendy.
ADD can have 93 seats
Bendies only 60, of the 14m superlong bus.
Evening also, it is an easily observable fact that d(806queue)/d(time) is higher than d(804queue)/d(time).
852* During the morning school hour peak and afternoon after school peak, the entire bus can be jammed pack with students in grey and beige and green ! -

90 is hardly profitable. It makes loss most times.
-
That's why I'm am saying during peaks hrs, standing pax all the way.
I remembered this as I was doing YFC course and took 90 from PLAB. I remembered that there was a 3658, where is it now?
