The Bendy Bus Fan Club (Part II)

TIB 501 D SG

I took 854 quite a lot. Everytime, it is either TIB530U or TIB620T that I caught.

I'm referring to services like 913, 812 etc. that have full bendy fleets. 854 is only majority bendies with some rigids.

SBS2656X SG

No bendys or OCs caught - I havent ride on a OC, Citaro and MAN on SMRT before.

carbikebus SG

Sorry to say but Voith Habits are the most smooth ones..I try 1208,1238 on 67/811 last time..

SBS8501U SG

Gosh... Stop ''flamewaring'' here will you? Create a thread for flamewars la!

Anyways, I haven't took a bendy since the last time I took it on 962.

You can check sgwiki to find out which fleet has the most number of bendies, and which service with bendies is most convenient for you.

TIB1218R SG

Sorry to say but Voith Habits are the most smooth ones..I try 1208,1238 on 67/811 last time..

Agree, especially TIB1218R

SBS8501U SG

Sorry to say but Voith Habits are the most smooth ones..I try 1208,1238 on 67/811 last time..

TIB1208U and TIB1238H yeah, TIB1238H crossovers from AMDEP 106 if I'm not wrong.

SBS2656X SG

I'm referring to services like 913, 812 etc. that have full bendy fleets. 854 is only majority bendies with some rigids.

I don't take Yshun Feeders - No use in taking them when my destination is Sembawang.

carbikebus SG

No bendys or OCs caught - I havent ride on a OC, Citaro and MAN on SMRT before.

SMRT fleets I haven take till now:136C,138Y the Voith Volgren bendy

SBST ones:8033D,Citaros,Wright batch 2/2B,

SBS8501U SG

I took 854 quite a lot. Everytime, it is either TIB530U or TIB620T that I caught.

It depends on the schedule as in every interval which bus will come in, whether is is a bendy or standard rigid.

Sometimes I need to catch the timing of a bendy bus arrival right, like what I'm doing now for 851.

wsy1234 SG

I wish SMRT will buy new bendy buses other than citaro maybe MAN bus, for feeders bus service or inter town service. But it seems to use the new A22 bus for inter town service like 859 from yishun to sembawang. and some services to city area. still if SMRT train the drivers properly SMRT should had no problem operating new bendy buses.

TIB783G SG

TIB1208U and TIB1238H yeah, TIB1238H crossovers from AMDEP 106 if I'm not wrong.

1238H starts full day on 106 without any supplementary trips to any svc, Even if they start from BB int.

I'm not sure for weekdays but weekends 1238H is definitely starting at BB.

SBS8501U SG

My favourite bendies are probably the ZF ones. I even have a TIB1147L paper bus at home.

Off topic

Paper buses that I have

SBS1842G, SBS461D, SBS842M, SBS958M, SBS2613U, SBS2815D, SBS5020K, SBS6025R, SBS7615G, TIB480E, and let's not forget my dearest TIB1147L!!! All hand-made without the help of any machinery.

Woh! I just board TIB1147L one hour ago!

SBS8501U SG

Thanks to SMB228X who wanted to advertise Citaros, people ended up dreading Citaros instead!

carbikebus SG

TIB1208U and TIB1238H yeah, TIB1238H crossovers from AMDEP 106 if I'm not wrong.

That time cameo on 811 and I was working on my rest day starter call me take bus from depot do downroute..Usually when I standby at Yishun the notorious svc I usually drive is 171,853 besides 852,854,855,811.Sembawang always kena 980.Ang Mo Kio 169 all single deck slots.If Tampines always 969,67 after I pass bendy test.Lor 1 961,985 the former always kena.Funny thing 61 only once although I live behind the interchange.But 61 no point also cause after Am shift I have to take 854 back to depot to collect my motorbike back.

SBS2656X SG

SMRT fleets I haven take till now:136C,138Y the Voith Volgren bendy

SBST ones:8033D,Citaros,Wright batch 2/2B,

Citaros, you can take 83, 101 or 195. High chance of getting a citaro.
Wright 2B? Can catch it on 78 or 80. 80 getting tons of wright 2B cameos.
For batch 2A you can catch it on 51, 87 or 183.

TIB 501 D SG

Sorry to say but Voith Habits are the most smooth ones..I try 1208,1238 on 67/811 last time..

Umm... It's just that l like the ZF sound that's all.

Citaro's voith is still the best. DM3500 not bad but aircon veeery cold on rainy days!

carbikebus SG

1238H starts full day on 106 without any supplementary trips to any svc, Even if they start from BB int.

I'm not sure for weekdays but weekends 1238H is definitely starting at BB.

I wonder why Amdep dun want to take few duties for 970 also cause Marina and Shenton Way is under their purview also.61 should give 10 duties to Kjdep back.One of my friend stay at Beach Rd perm 106 for Amdep side.

TIB1218R SG

Off topic: Took SMB136C on 855 just now. Best Citaro I've took. Awesome aircon, comfortable red fabric seats, powerfull ZF gearbox better than voith..

MAN A22 on 859 just now..

TIB1020T on 800 today (AMDEP 854)

carbikebus SG

Citaros, you can take 83, 101 or 195. High chance of getting a citaro.
