I'm positive. SBS3596 was right in front of my bus when it pulled out of Tampines Interchange at around noon.Originally posted by Scania:Are you sure its 3596D cos I saw a NAC Scania on 157 today(and 3596D is a perm on 157), but one thing's for sure 3590U is a Training bus.

As 157 is FAC in the e guide. What if it's other services.Originally posted by off_service:Not again...
Like when 106 was FAC, Leyland Alteantean was deployed once.
Or when 170 became FAC, 151 became PAC without telling the public.
To me, they are just irresponsible. -

First thing first --> e-guide. Now, SBST's peeps have already so much work to do for feedbacks and stuffs. It's hard for them to maintain it constantly, since workload is pretty high. Therefore, the probability for them to upgrade the website is just 0Originally posted by th1988:As 157 is FAC in the e guide. What if it's other services.

2nd thing --> Every bus companies do have constraint when deploying buses to every route. Do not always complain that about Sv 90 just because SBST deploys whole fleet of NAC Scania N113CRB to it. Looking at the fleet size within Central district, it's always hard for them to deploy air-conditioned buses to some Partial Air-Con svcs as some other svcs need the air-conditioned buses. It's NOT a case of bias-ness. Also, why do we sometimes see NAC buses on FAC bus svcs? That's how this principle applies to such a context. Now let me ask you this, e.g. You've just started a bus company that operates 3 routes (e.g. Sv 1, Sv 2 and Sv 3). You have let say 30 buses in your company, 18 A/c Buses, 12 non a/c buses. Sv 1 and Sv 2 are a/c and Sv 3 is nac. Now, Sv 1 and 2 needs about say 9 buses each during peak hours. Sv 3 is a mid-demand bus sv during peak hours but freq is not so fantastic. However on this day, 1 a/c buses is broken down. You've no choice but to deploy one nac bus to it. Of course, you do not have magic powers to convert one nac bus to a/c, or to "twink" and one ac bus pops out. What's the moral of this story? When you have constraints, you can only use the limited amount of resources that you have to fufil customers' needs. -
