TIB770T SG

Should be SMB144D if i remember correctly, at that time running on 171.

joeyfjj also told me SMB141L also has ZF EcoLife, so probably SMB139U to SMB147X has ZF EcoLife.

SBS 1000U SG

Both on 28 today???

Is SMRT buying any more citaros as of now?

Don't think so... They are switching to China brands already...

supremebull SG

think SBST will have to modify the bell buttons soon.

the current design will activate the bell just by someone leaning on the button.

Seems like there are quite a few differences between SMRT's production Citaro buses and SBS Transit's Citaro buses, besides the few obvious ones (different LED displays, etc.).

I guess all of you have been wondering whr is the door button located at for SBST Citaro. SMRT Door button as you can see is at the white part just on top of the headlight area. SBST is clever enough to hide it behind the left wing wiper arm area whr the bottom black part of the windscreen is that made a camouflouge of the button and moreover that its quite flat also. i just found out when i boarded SBS 6000L on 28 just now at Toa Payoh Int whr i saw the driver sort of like press something at the back of the left wiper then toe door opens.

Actually, that's the original design of the citaro because smb136c's button was also below the wiper arm. I believe it is instead smrt who requested it to be moved to the side of the doors for easier access by the sl.

SMB116K SG

please check ur facts. he is trying to say a citaro in the range of SBS6030 to 6039.

Oh between that range. He should have written SBS603_ range.

Sorry for misunderstanding.

BBDEP was the third depot to receive Citaros? Or are the Citaros sent to there for other reasons?

I'm not sure about it. I just saw it only.

That might somehow explain the reployments of SBS8080S and SBS8092H to TRG buses and SBS8057K and SBS8067G to SLBP?

SBS7557R SG

and SBS1911R, SBS1924D, SBS1939L, SBS1941D, SBS1949H, SBS1967E to SLBP.

lemon1974 SG

and SBS1911R, SBS1924D, SBS1939L, SBS1941D, SBS1949H, SBS1967E to SLBP.

i tot all these happen few months back?BBDEP have taken wrights to replace these buses.. and the citaros are in BBDEP because of the MK3..... if Citaros dun go BBDEP/HGDEP/BNDEP, then ppl will complain that SLBP/AMDEP keep take in new buses...

^tamago^ SG

finally SBST Citaros running on a 2nd service.

SBS8675B SG

Service 138 starts Citaro wef today. Spotted SBS6004B.

wsy1234 SG

Citaro is a nice bus 100 time better then KUB, I wonder why SBS never buy 1000 of them instead of KUB? KUB bus is the most lousy bus SBS ever had. that is after taking it on service 28 and compare to a KUB bus on 28. I think this bus should be in service that serve long distance like 28 or use for trunk service. and use KUB as feeder bus as it is very rocky. there no need for so many DD bus but need many of this type of bus. so comfort you never feed like getting out of the bus. use it in 138 is a good try as many tourist can take the bus to the zoo.

wsy1234 SG

compare to kub citaro is a good bus kub very rocky and is the most lousy bus sbs ever get. sbs should get 1000 of them to replace DD bus or use it for trunk service. compare both KUB and Citaro both on 28 KUB very rocky. 138 is a good service as it serve tourist from the zoo to AMK mrt station. Good bus to buy. Actually compare the old 405 this is even better one. compare 405 to kub i think sbs better to get rid of KUB than 405.
