Guess the next WAB service(s) thread

last SG · 2012-02-01T13:55:05+00:00

I think that svc 105 will go WAB.Almost 20 KUBS!over 80% WAB quota.

TIB 585L SG

911, 961, 965 for now.

965 nope. 0 WAB perms excluding 270Y wich is perm 960

SBS8676Z SG

965 nope. 0 WAB perms excluding 270Y wich is perm 960

965 can be done easily given the number of new MAN A22s in WLDEP, provided WLDEP is willing to deploy full fleet MANs.

SBS8676Z SG

Likelikood candidates for March 2013 wave: 50, 62, 88, 112, 116, 119, 132, 159, 222, 262.

And it looks like Toa Payoh interchange is going thru WAB modifications for the end-on berths now.

TIB1218R SG

Not 969 please...

SMB128B SG

Haha this is impossible. Look at how SMRT abuse 965's fleet. NEW MANS MAH FOOT. They don't even bother to send the new BSEP MAN for 965's BSEP fleet add. All 965 ever received all these while are hand-me-downs, so I won't be real pleased anyway.

I can even predict perhaps 3007 will soon be replaced by a O405 to serve as BSEP fleet add haha.

SBS7491X SG

88 & 50

Infrastructure completed for 88 and if 50 gets WAB, svc 50 - 59 all wab

SBS2601D SG

Dunno why you are always complaining about not having new buses. Same with all the ruckus with 163.

You dont want the "hand-me-downs" can always give me. I always appreciate good frequency and seats above "new buses".

262 Bishan Park is not wheelchair friendly

132 kick in more wrights

I cannot tolerate it.

You've been whining about 965, 163 and other services ever since I joined this forum. You say it almost in every thread alot of times, people will get sien and ignore you. Say it once and that's it. DON'T KEEP REPEATING IT!

If your job here is to whine about 965, 163 and other ''neglected'' services of yours, then I suggest you don't stay here.

And if you think you want to deploy any buses you want, go to SMRT and tell them what buses to deploy, this service serve where better or whatever shit you want to do.

He seems to have forgotten about his promise back in December 2011 about his complaints.

Passengers never even complain, you complain. Boh liao max please~

I wonder what would happen if they dump more lousy bus to 965, perhaps you will just jump off a building to end your life just because of a meaningless issue

I saw it. Started researching about this site around late Nov 2011, before I create account on 3 Jan 2012.

And now, instead, he flames people for this and that

TIB 501 D SG

I heard from a senior that...

When a certain bus gets new WAB buses, they have to dump the old non-WABs somewhere else, like how they dumped the VOs on 23, 65, 74, 132, 153, all JIS services etc. instead of making them SP buses.

965's case is because SMRT chooses to dump the O4s on 965.

163's downgrade earlier on was due to HGDEP still having lots of MK3s at that time, and had to deploy them on certain services.

70's case is due to not enough SP WDDs at AMDEP, as mentioned by SBS 9631X. Don't think ADD to WSD replacement is good, as it is a high demand CBD service.

TIB783G SG

If they feel the demand there they will raise the quota.

Just like last year 1st Quarter how they increased 171's WAB quota slowly.

SBS 6078 M SG

And last year how they increase 166's wab quota. And how I find all those fucking perm DM3500s and Wrights

SBS8676Z SG

171's case was mainly due to WLDEP side which did not have any new OC500LE intake back in 2009. It was only when MAN A22s rolled into the fleet which benefitted the WAB quota for 171 later on.

I agree with you for 70. 70's distant should be able to cope with kubs. Citaros should go to svc which run around approx 50km like 24 and 53. Though 24 dosen't hit 50km, the distance covered by it is 49.5km, whereas 53 is 53.3km or 53.4km, depending on where it parks at Bishan Int.

And all those rotten KUBs stay in AMDEP to get rotten? Throw to 70 and bus svcs that are wab but with low wab quota.

That senior sounded bright......not.

To put simply if you put the older buses into SP, then what's "deployment of assets" for?

Might as well Russian Roulette every morning?

I won't even call it "dump". It's called "re-shuffle".

Please get your mannerisms right.

SBS2601D SG

And I challenge anybody who keeps talking about "the perfect deployment" to read the extremely dry theories of public transport planning that are also nicely steeped in mathematics.

But I will bet based on what I have seen to date that there won't be any takers.
