Capacity Upgrade/Downgrade Reporting on Bus Services

254/255/257 loads can easily cross 100 pax.. Why no BSEP yet or even fleet add from SBST side... Totally ignore the JIS area.

976S 1216X - 61

Err, did you post this under the wrong thread?

SBS 9631X SG

I agree.. recently the DDs were also bunching like crazy... 24 buses is good fleet size with 13 DDs

Quite common to see 3 to 4 Sv 966 buses nowadays though during Off-peak, with the DDs running at like with a few pax

61 has been without any bendies when it went WAB

TPS Timothy Mok SG

61 has been without any bendies when it went WAB

61 has only one bendy now.
61 begins from scratch.

TIB429E SG

Correct thread though haha...

both are back to back iirc...or with just 1 SD inbetween..

BusAnalayzer SG

61 has only one bendy now.
61 begins from scratch.

61 has had one bendy for a very long time.. both the DDs have been SD --> DD conversion.

BusAnalayzer SG

856 finally gets 1 more DD with BSEP DD add (3548)

964 gets another fleet add but from SMRT side with 8025T...

Looks like all the bendies/DDs are not enough on this industrial service for sure!

BusAnalayzer SG

Did sv 12 get another DD fleet add?

Beside the balance E500s,They still need about 120 A95s and another 30-40 units of A24 after the 40 units order.They can just cancel the A22 orders..

Good news. Saw 1 DD on service 3 today. Double decker debut on service 3 today I guess?

Btw SMB5889E goes to KJDEP. And I realise that there are patterns when transferring to depots. For OC500LE, the demonstrator bus goes to KJDEP and the first production batch bus also go to KJ and the second unit goes to AMDEP. Citaro demo go to AMDEP 855 and the first production batch go to AMDEP also and the second unit go to KJDEP. For MAN A24 demo go KJ and the first prod unit go to KJ too and the second go to AMDEP. I guess it will be the same for MAN A95? The second unit of MAN A95 will go to AMDEP I guess.

3801 And 3807 spotted on 3

Hi mr SMB3095S, if it is true, then it is good. Sbs 3 deserved double decker long time ago. So the narrow roads around pasir ris st 21 can be worked around. Cheers. Thanks.

Hi mr TIB1112L, this is 1 thing I have long advocated for. Sbs 3 deserved double decker much more than Sbs 85 needed. Cheers. Thanks.

Like that can withdraw 3A and 3B already.

Is it true that 966 has been cut back to 24 duties from 27 duties?

Yes. I have confirmed it after months of observation, especially the recent adjustment for the Weekdays schedule which is effective as of 10082015.

MAN NL323F slots
SMB276G, SMB277D, SMB279Z, SMB310R, SMB311M > 966-01 (966AP01) - 966-04 (966AP04), 966-06 (966AP06) (Rotating duties)

Hi mr sbs6750E, yes it is true. Sbs 3 has double deckers finally. So happy! It is dream come true! Hip hip hooray. Cannot understand why they do not put DDs on Sbs 3 much earlier. Cheers.

SMB1H > KJ [DEMO]

SMB388S > KJ [DEMO]

SMB8002C > AM

SMB138Y > WL [DEMO]
SMB189A > WL
SMB190U > WL

If base on first deployment, you're wrong for the Citaro part. Anyway, I suspect the A95s will replace those out-going BSEP ADLs(to TT)..so likely KJ > WL > AM

Hmm

139U went to WLBP. Where they refill the Adblue?

I agree. It is good to see DDs on sv 3 finally. And many times we say turns and twists, but actually if wanted they are able to deploy DDs even on routes with tight turns.

Given that there is no news of the Punggol-Tampines service anymore, right decision to upgrade sv 3 to DDs... I expect it to have at least 4-5 DDs (not only 2)
