Why E500 again when their performance is not good? :( E500s are the noisiest DDs after the CDGEs IMO.

Sbst will need more DDs as not just for 851 and 860 but also needed for Yishun feeders and intratown services too.

They can kapo 20 of SMRT unpainted B9TL

Nice suggestion. All the unpainted B9TLs are KLJ based. Btw n also even if GAS agrees to take a small number of A22, more likely LTA will give those from the bsep fleet just like how TT received from smrt. SG A22s are less or not likely at all as the SG plated ones the initial orders done by SMRT then LTA foot the bill as BCM just kicked in last year if I m not wrong.

I don't think that would happen even in 5 years time.

Afterall they are the direct fleet replacements for the retired O405s.

Its just all about cost issue. If MAN A22 comes to GA not only benefit drivers including yourself but also for regular commuters in Pasir Ris and Punggol too. Punggol residents might hav commuted a22 only along tpe to services like 858,965 and 969. As for pasir residents totally none except maybe night outers at weekends commute them by NR7.

First of all its depend on LTA and lastly if GAS ang moh technical manager want it or not.Unless its three door A22 & A95L bought by LTA to spread around.

I too would love to have that,Even if they only take A95,At least 3 models is

not that bored

Finger crossed,Who knows for the production A95L?

A95L = 3-door A95?

carbikebus SG

If future mainstream model is MAN A95,Then GAS will get a chance

carbikebus SG

A95L = 3-door A95?

Yes

TIB987K SG

So 52xx rego range will not be used after all?

Maybe SG52XXX for remaining B9TL, SG57XXX for Enviro 500 and maybe SG59XXX for A95L ...

A22 fan SG

SG58xx to SG59xx..for A95 facelift..LTA ordered 122 of them.

A22 fan SG

For now I assume that all batch 3 a95 are for SMRT buses. TTS and GAS maybe but for SBST its out of reach as they are unkeen n might not know how to maintain MAN buses. Even Singapore Johor Express bus services can do better since they first purchased MAN buses 3 decades ago.

i can tell you that 99.9999% of the commuter does not care what buses they take...

they only wan reliable buses services that come on time and that they can board and reach their destination safely.....

they also wont care about what types of the doors that the buses used, or what type of side mirror etc...

Hmm.. How about things like lack of PIS then?

I believe he include this too..

A22 fan SG

I always think that daily essential commuting public buses or trains is just like having a meal. A new model roaming around n commute them is a bonus just like tasting a new dish. And feeling fresh too. @lemon1974, 99.999 per cent dont care? U must be kidding. But i believe a minority doesnt care but its normal.
