Did it run any Sv?Originally posted by Zilchster:Yoz,
Spotted this bus today at around 11.17am...along AMK Ave 1 in the direction towards Lor Chuan/Boundary Road.
Saw a plate at the rear window of ths bus...not sure wat it is...it is a 12m bus.
It looks rather different from the mainline SBST fleet.
Rego is SBS 8025C in SBST livery...

[b]positive! positive!
tis bus rego is active. from my guess, it's registered on 25th may 2004. check the rego's road tax at www.onemotoring.com.sg > LTA (Drop-down) > Online Enquiries > Enquiry of Road Tax Payable.
from ths stats, it looked like it has a radio installed. road tax is $770 (as opposed to a new 12m SD public svc bus or less than 10 yrs being $700), which means it has something else added. also, it has to pay for a radio licence of $27 p.a., which could mean it has radio on-board (not to be mistaken for TVMobile).
i can confidently tell u (still checking) that 8019X to 8028U has been registered on the same day with the same configuration.

Don't tell me the Ex-Sentosa B10Ms have returned to parent firm SBST? Then why are the O405 DMs formerly on 711, 712 & 713 still in old livery?Originally posted by carbikebus:Sorry to spoil your mood,But i did saw Three Ex-Sentosa B10M(SBST Livery)with Training bus destos @ Punggol Central,Maybe that solves the mysteries of the new buses![]()
Precisely,SBS Leisure,SBS Transit are all part of Delgro if you wish to know.Originally posted by iveco:Don't tell me the Ex-Sentosa B10Ms have returned to parent firm SBST? Then why are the O405 DMs formerly on 711, 712 & 713 still in old livery?
u mean they are the new buses with 802x regos?Originally posted by carbikebus:Sorry to spoil your mood,But i did saw Three Ex-Sentosa B10M(SBST Livery)with Training bus destos @ Punggol Central,Maybe that solves the mysteries of the new buses![]()
Yes, they have.Originally posted by ^tamago^:u mean they are the new buses with 802x regos?
did Sentosa coaches have radios? i only remembered there were TV's.
I think they are trying to convert it back into SBS fleet as they are underutitlised other than the Turf City routeOriginally posted by Zilchster:Spotted SBS 8025C twice today.
1st time was in the morning of between 9am to 9.05am...the bus was turning left from Bishan Road into Bishan Street 11...it had a red plate with words...there was some distance...could not read it at the back window pane of the bus...anyway the bus turned left and I got a look at the left side of the bus...had 2 exits...the back of the bus looks like the Turf City volvo bus (i saw one of the PA-registered Volvos later). Saw the left side, the side desto looks very much like the Turf City Volvo bus.
Saw 8025C again in the afternoon at around 2.20pm to 2.25pm. The bus had turned out from AMK Ave 10 into AMK Ave 1...there were a few bus drivers on board. Saw the front desto...no EDS, not very big. Around the size of the Turf City Volvos. Saw the interior of the bus. After the front entrance of the bus, got something...grills or wat...something like racks...or wat...the seat backs were facing the side body of the bus...3 independent ones if I am not wrong. Caught the Volvo sign on the left hand side of the bus...at the rear.
the 3 side-facing seats... they are on the left or right of the bus. i presume it's right. the turf city B10M's configuration is 4 seats on the right at front of bus, right behind the driver.Originally posted by Zilchster:Spotted SBS 8025C twice today.

Confirm it is a Training busOriginally posted by ^tamago^:SBST 802x bus spotted at 6.54am at Thomson Rd (MacRitchie Reservoir) towards Braddell Rd. can't see rego cos sky is dark and bus on opposite side of road.
