Hope that we wont see more cases of corrupted EDSes in SBST like
wat is happening now.Just yesterday 8540G's whole side EDS was
a huge long orange rectangle.Great eyesore man looking at
it.And noticed that the 291 kubs are the ones that always kena the
square block at the rear EDS.
That day even better saw a euro 4 kub on some svc.Forgot which
svc.The rear EDS was as usual a whole block.Then after that even
better champion.The rear EDS went totally off and i not sure if the
EDS came back again or not cuz the bus left with the rear EDS just
off.
SMRT are the champions for all this cuz they all the way solid use
EDS so they got experience on EDSes unlike SBST who keep on
changing this and that.SBST should learn more abt all this from
SMRT.
I remember last time 8033D rear EDS corrupted or something.
Block, then 8, then like a reversed Euro (€) sign
SMRT at least they know how to mantain and choose a good brand,
and the Sls usually know how to clear and fix the corrupted EDS
unless the EDS is dead already. Also, SMRTB tends to stick to tried
and tested brands, such as LAWO, Transit Media etc., and if new
brand which they never use before, trial first (Mobitec). Unlike
SBST, who go buy 500 buses with Coolair EDS, which I have never
heard of beforehand. Still, SBST is learning, and now making better
choices for future buses, like the case of the EEV KUBs.
However, how reliable is LECIP? Though I know this is a trial
basis, and they may revert back to destos, can it handle SG
climate? Can the public see the svc no. from far away?Only time
will tell, eh?
