I'm not surprised if Scania Citywide Double Decker will be introduced to Singapore in 2016.if that day comes I will celebrate in style.

Are you sure that the A95s are for TT? They may be for SMRT.

Seems no chance that they are for GAG.

SG5755K to SG5761S are registered to Tower Transit.

Can confirm no chance if the SG plate A95s funded by LTA?Unless youre talking about Enviro which i can confirm no chance..Even the SG plate A22 got chance..

so the Tower Transit bus services all dun have Permanent Fleet? Also dun have duty details?

SG5755K to SG5761S are registered to Tower Transit.

these should be the ones that i saw at BUDEP, parking together at top left corner (when facing SMRT side entrance of the depot) with some of them are in lush green already

then the buses that park beside A95s are one whole long row of citaros with purple & orange livery

I think new buses for TT are already all registerred

lemon1974 SG

So TT took in 87 new wrights, 18 new A95 and 53 new citaros, total around 158 new buses.... does it really need so many buses?? unless some of the current SBST buses are not going over...

based on current fleet deployment, there are around 96 SBST citaros and 131 B9 to be transferred over..

158 + 131 + 96 + 75 (A22) + 19 (E500) = 479 buses..

does TT need so many buses????

carbikebus SG

Wah,like that only left 21 lots for SMRT?What about the 18 MAN A95s?Already on service for TT?Or is it for SMRT since TT kapo 19 E500s from them?

According to this newspaper report (in Chinese), they supposedly will start operations with 317 transferred buses and 50 new buses. I think the 50 new buses part is a bit low as compared to the amount of new buses registered to them.

The number of buses transferred from SMRT was 94. So I expect some buses to remain with SBS for the time being, which I think these buses will most likely be transferred to Go Ahead.

SBS3004X SG

Some of the buses might even go to LYDEP directly.

Seems that only the LECIP EDS Wrights will be going over, or there will be overflow.

SBS3385X onwards should be for GAG.

Nope, if only the LECIP ones go over to Tower, then there will be a shortage as compared to the 317 shown in the news report. Furthermore, some of these buses in Jurong East have their logos stripped already, so these are very likely to go over to Tower.

6342A has its SBST logo removed

yes... and from the newspaper yesterday, TT CEO was quoted saying that they are operating 26 services with 370 buses.....so guess some of the SBST buses will not go over instead.

doing the maths, around 100-110 SBST buses should be staying and guess they will use these buses to replace those retiring Vo3x instead...

Don't forget the buses will be used for new Tuas West services.
