Hmm, been boarding a few wrights on diff svc, and i notice that the aircon is not really strong, esp the upper deck, i dunno how to say it but when there is...

Just took SBS7519B on Svc 30 just now. The BC drove extremely slowly. Never before have I experienced such relaxed gear changes made by the auto box. The bus even came to a halt going up Benjamin Sheares bridge as the BC didn't give it more power. He then floored it afterwards. The amazing turbo sound! The BC seemed to have some problem with driving, he couldn't keep the bus going straight. Don't know what he was actually doing but he seemed to be shuffling the steering wheel, making the bus sort of wobbly. He also braked extremely late and hard at stops and often strayed onto the next lane. But once he reached Paya Lebar, he suddenly decided to go extremely fast and went sort of reckless. What a ride!

Maybe the bus driver drives the LO3x last time, hence no confidence ? The new Volvo B9TL WEG has ABS and alot of other features that is different from LO3x. To say the lest, I love the LO3x as they are heavy and very boxy.. I will never forget how bus drivers wrestle the steering wheel on board svc 30, 51, 97,143,154,174. :D

7595E is BN bus, saw a senior BN 30 driver driving yesterday. I guess the bus did 174 SL before transferring over to BN 30? Possible? I very much doubt the driver transferred over to SL.

service_238 SG

SBS7595E on both Svc 174 and Svc 30 today. The bus moved from Svc 174 berth to Svc 30 berth at BNL at around 4pm and departed about 15 minutes later...

maybe 30 no lot so use 174's lot to disembark passengers?

Took one on 197 today. Nice to have a quiet gearbox for a change.

On 99 today.

service_238 SG

judging from trend

7560 7595 bndep
7576 slbp
7583 7586 bbdep

not hard to guess the depot allocation esp since most of them who are registered are in service.

bus.com SG

Is 7503X being repaired at BRBP workshop? or are new wrights going to be registered soon??? Saw a wright today at around at 4 pm.

SBS9496U SG

maybe 30 no lot so use 174's lot to disembark passengers?

Erm, I definitely saw SBS7595E running on service 174 that day, turning into the 174E berth at BNL with EDS showing 174 and dismbarking passengers. A few svc 174 BCs also crowded around the bus talking with the BC who parked the bus there. That same BC then drove off with a KUB with another BC coming from within BNL to drive the bus over to svc 30 berth.
