Hanor... He wanted to deploy DDs on SMRT feeders when he
actually knows that 912/913's pax are short haul, then he denies it
by calling the intratowns "longer" than SBST townlinks.
Then he say it's a myth that DDs won't do well in CCK, WDL and
YIS.
And he also say it's a myth that bendies are faster than DDs,
LIKE REAL ARH!!! I TOOK 969 BENDY FEW DAYS AGO AND IT OVERTOOK ALL
THE BUSES LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS... Besides bendies have higher
torque than VO3X, but for some reason the Batch 2B WEG2s are slower
even with the higher torque output...
WDL Feeders/Intratowns can NEVER have DDs. ESPECIALLY
900/911/913.
913 for example. The boarding and unloading process for a bendy
at Admiralty Stn takes about only 30 seconds. Cannot believe how
long would it have taken had it been a DD doing that svc. I have
alr observed enough chaos at Bedok Stn, everyday the buses behind
have to wait... just for a single 222 DD to unload and board all of
its pax.
And TIB868X should be right - people normally will speed when
they are in the pressure of keeping up tight schedules. However,
this still proves that SMRT buses are much faster that SBST buses.
BusAnalyzer had "analyzed" shit here.
