Bus Observations (2013)

last SG · 2013-01-05T19:33:18+00:00

very simple…S190 drivers totally dun care one… Some just chiong, whack 70km/hr.. .end up 3 or 4 S190 will appear together at 1 shot after waiting neck long l...

SBS2656X SG

Major interchange like Jurong(Temp)/Woodlands Reg/Bedok should have at least 5-6 alighting berths instead of 2-3....

Worst for Jurong(Temp), where private bus just anyhow park before the traffic light, and extending the long queue for buses to enter. Further more, the exit damn small for outside buses to get to the berth(the very first berth)

You should just take a look at Boon Lay Int can already. With 179 being the trouble maker, long worm of buses can be seen queueing outside BNL and blocking the traffic light junction.

* SMB283K cleaned body & rims...

* TIB793C last row of seats not fix properly against the wall... Exit-view mirror is rectangular instead of round ones... Slamming its doors when closing...

* TIB794A on 960/911E slot, BC didn't bother to take out "960" rear desto...

TIB429E SG

TIB779U with chilly air-con, like first time boarding it with a working and great air-con system...

Yeah, but even if there's air-con sound, TIB779U's ac won't be blowing any air out. Been like that for the past rides. Only today I get to board the bus with chilly aircon, strong air.

TIB 585L SG

Merc OAC,CAC aircon can be either freaking cold or stuffy. But i do love the cold buses especially on long rides.

MAN buses are also really cold but the sad thing is u cant push the aircon away, Never rode on a stuffy MAN before

OC also have very good aircon, never had stuffy ride on that before when the OC perm 858

Citaro at times can be stuffy too idk why.

TIB 585L SG

Saw 3 MAN with no Livery at Liannex.

PA4139M (Sentosa) - new front and side Mobitec EDS, but only side EDS working... Icon_lol

PA5279K (Sentosa Bus 1) - middle 'BUS STOPPING' / 'MIND THE STEP' sign spoilt, front door loose...

RU3720L (Beach Station > Siloso Point/Imbiah Lookout Service) - front EDS spoilt, showing a orange blob on top half of EDS, but side EDS fine... Need Mobitec EDS soon?

SBS7528A (SLBP 51) - now adless, but front upper window still got Malaysia Tourism 2014 ad leh...

SBS9478Y (HGDEP 51) - got red 51 perm tag, above the notice warning about the height of the bus...

TIB556X (KJDEP SP/188R) - BC turned on parallel lighting, but only the lights at front part (Between the PIS and middle 'BUS STOPPING' sign [which is not working Icon_lol ]) working, all rear lights all spoilt, except the last one... Love those thick bottom seat covers... Thumbs_up

TIB600B (KJDEP 67) - middle 'BUS STOPPING' still using red LEDs... Rear doors close loudly, like TIB547Y and TIB555Z... Front doors have faded SMRT livery on the outside, while the rear doors covered up with black, like TIB481C...

SBS9661J on 10 was spotted at Opp Heng Mui Keng Terrace bus stop at 1.40p.m. 2 minutes later, SBS9666X came. Another 2 minutes later, SBS9809B came. Why did all those DDs come so frequently? Boarded TIB556X at 1.45p.m. and saw SBS6351Z at Opp Haw Par Villa Stn bus stop at 1.48p.m. This meant that SBS6351Z would arrive at Opp Heng Mui Keng Terrace bus stop at 1.51p.m, 7 minutes after SBS9809B. Wonder why all the DDs come so close to each other, causing the frequency to become so regular (2 mins) to irregular (7 mins)... Suspect the buses behind SBS6351Z came at high frequencies...

TIB 585L SG

TIB1168B back rego almost cannot be seen, but it is easy to recognise from the back

23ispolo SG

it is easy to recognise from the back

You mean the whole rear of the bus (the condition of the bodywork at the back)?

TIB 585L SG

Just the rego itself

23ispolo SG

TIB 585L SG

Why does 911 have a lot of crossover during AM, Does it got to do with the residents staying there? 911 got x-over from 1242U,587G,815Z,1041H,1071X+ split perm 486P n 487L.

PM got the 3 split perm+ 1159C and 187S103

913 for AM got 2 x-over from 960 only

912 for AM i dont think got x-over from any service to 912.

911 has a lot of x-over in the morning.

Does it have to do with the fleet capacity or the residential demographics?

Fleet capacity[2 SD, 5 Bendy] and the no. of buses at the timing[5-6 @ 8-12mins]...

SMB42P SG

172 got service delay today at around 2.15pm. SMB57Y (172AP06) and SMB58U (172AP07) left boon lay interchange around 3 mins apart. Was on board SMB58U and found that BC was 5 mins behind schedule. BC just alight pax, reset the meter, and started picking up pax at 172 berth while BC go tap card , bus still picking up pax. That means that 57Y is running even more behind schedule.

Along the way, no 172 was in sight in the opposite direction until when 58U reaches the PIE flyover. TIB714G (172AP01) and SMB59S (172AP02) spotted bunching together. 714G was spotted behind 59S and 714G was packed to the brim. Can already be seen that 714G was very behind time that 59S caught up and front bus (58U) already left int for at least 10-15 mins.

Then 58U kept chionging but end up still 1 min late when reach cck int. While rest of the 172 AP buses seem not affected.

58U back bus is 714G so i wonder how long pax is going to wait after missing 58U.
