Please don't. Don't waste such good buses under this kind of company. Rather let other operators who can maintain well buy them. For the sake of goodwill of...

8416H on 39 today. Running around eh

Yeah, 6180A did 354 on Wed as debut Citaro for 354. Then Friday it did 354 also, & Saturday (31Mar) also on 354. If i'm not wrong, 6180A also did 354 on Thurs.

Wed (28Mar): 6180A replaced 8416H, 8419A was on.
Friday (30Mar): 6180A replaced 8416H, 791B replaced 8419A (Full fleet cameo)
Sat (31Mar): 6180A replaced 8416H again, 8248B replaced 8419A (Full fleet cameo).

8416H did 39 as you said twice last week IIRC, 81 on one day. Not sure about the other days. Think they are testing out feasibility for Citaros on 354, cause after all 354's main demand is during the crush loading on weekends. If there's still Citaro after Monday, then probably something is fishy.

SLBP should focus on DDs instead. The Leyland Olympians will be going off in half year's time.

It's just a cameo..

To add on to my post, 8416H still on 39 today (01 Apr). While 8248B does 354, but I'm not sure if 6180A is still on cause I didn't spot the other 354 bus.

6180 is on 354 today again. cfm perm.
so is 8416 39. i believe it has taken over 752P or 771J slot.

I have my doubts about 6180A for now until I check again tmr, cause I still think they are testing out the crush loading for weekend. If tmr is still on then means the trial was a success i guess. Yesterday 6180A confirmed still without any perm stix, so I guess still need to observe till tmr.

Plus I don't know where in the world has 8419A gone, you have any ideas where 8419A is too? 3days MIA.

As for 8416H going 39, if it is perm it will replace 771J. 912U was the one which replaced 752P sometime back. Only 771J's replacement not confirmed yet.

Citaro will stay on 354 it can take whatever loading! Suitable for all conditions!

You my friend (no, what the shit, you were never my friend or to anyone else in this forum), is a SMRT MAN bus living in the other side of the island. This is a Citaro serving a service in the East side. Since you are a different make and model (your username) from what I was talking about, also on totally different mental states as I am (my physical person), so obviously you have no say and hence no constructive feedback on this topic. So just shut up and stop quoting my post.

SMB228X SG

U are a DD u also cannot comment! Unless u cameo 354!!!

AEW5001 SG

i hope it stays this way. there is no need for a euro4 to perm 354; a citaro will do fine.
while sv39 needs a euro4 coz of the peak period demand.

SBS8676Z SG

U are a DD u also cannot comment! Unless u cameo 354!!!

Let me ask u some questions:-

1. When is SMB228X registered and what is the bus model?

2. What is the engine and chassis number for SMB228X?

3. Which SMRT depot is SMB228X assigned to?

4. Which bus service is SMB228X assigned to and where can u catch it?

5. What is so special about the registration number SMB228X and why u choose it as your username?

6180A is confirmed perm 354 already. Today still on 354, replacing 8416H's timings.
While 8419A is MIA for 4th day, today instead replaced by 8328D while 8248B is on 358 replacing 879H.

Did you see 8416H on 39 though? I'm not sure if it went out to SP or 39.

See I predicted 354 Citaros r staying!!

So? The reason you used for the Citaros being perm are more often than not linked to them having more power, which is definitely not the reason why 354 got 6180A.

He's King of Post without seeing one..already got owned when he simply say himself "King of Prediction" for SMB138Y on 965 which actually was an April Fools' Joke..

I absolutely agree with your post dude. Clones have useless brains anyway. Have you ever seen a cloned organism that functioned properly also? Most die off early eh. AMEN.

SBS 9631X SG

Anyway, once again, I strongly believe 6166S 6168L 6171B 6172Z 6174T are perm somewhere on some BNDEP services. Because given past deployment trends of BNDEP (logically speaking), there's no way they could have skipped these few buses and let 6179E go 196e and then 6180A go 354 as perm.

So if anyone did spotted them again recently, please do update here. Although I know 6171B seems to be stuck to 229 again..but all the rest totally MIA to me.

AEW5001 SG

6171 is perm 229. the rest remain SP for now.

SBS 9631X SG

6171 is perm 229. the rest remain SP for now.

Alright thanks for the update! Anyway 6166S is on 518 today, finally appeared again after MIA for some time.

And for those who doubt 6180A is perm 354 like I've posted, 6180A is still on 354 today replacing 8416H's timings as in the past week. So any doubts that its not perm should be quashed by now. While 8419A continues to go MIA for the 5th straight day, except that its replacement is never fixed (today 8353E replaces 8419A).

BC of 6180A today seems quite happy he is driving a Citaro instead though. More like the feeling of driving a new bus rather than using the power (in case that SMRT MAN user comes quote my post again and proclaim his love for the Citaro's power).
