Much as the SL/BC likes to speculate about fleets or whatever it is, It will still be the management's decision that has the final say over such stuffs. We d...

Wateva SMRT got purchase bendies or not we will know in future.

IF really is ban, the possibilities are 1 - 1 exchange, full fleet "12m" bus - boring =X or no choice buy DD lor (most likely impossible) to cater huge passenger load. =X

Hmmm,
Are u sure that the road in Seletar Camp is rough and unpaved ?

U mentioned that u are a regular on 103 and you shld have notice that they recently admended the road in the West camp portion.

keyword here is recently :)

read from this thread that with all the construction the roads are dustier so maybe thats another valid point.

Merczrox SG

103 160 170 are the services with the dustiest buses.... and 72 to a lesser extent..
so they get all older buses.. cheaper to maintain in a sense

Svc 400 and 402 also....Look at hw dusty 3916P still is considering it was redeployed out so long ago.

sbst275 SG

all e dirty buses are usually because of construction projects i.e. appearance of large no of dump trucks, cement mixers

Merczrox SG

Lol... Sounds like SBS Transit put spy to ride on SMB136C for performance...

You should see how dirty the exteriors of SMB119C, TIB640K are. WLDEP did not really bother to repaint the livery again.... TIB640K is still dirty as usual after being redeployed to 187 from 961.

Heng ah, SMB132M and SMB133K were redeployed to 187, no need to pass-by construction area (But smetimes they cameo on ex-perm 961)

Pity 119, 120, 121, 122, 128, 129, 130, 131 have to pass-by Upp Timah Road everyday.....

Should also take note on (TIB) 638T, It also has a very dirty back.

SMB128B & SMB129Z had their livery repainted last few months ago.

WOW! That's good news. Finally Citaros for SBS Transit. Can't wait to see them on the roads. I always thought there will be no more Mercedes Benz buses after the O405s retired next year. Kudos for SBS Transit for bring new Mercedes Benz buses in again. And Citaros.

They should look something like this.

I wonder will they come in as completely build up or imported as kits to Singapore for assembly???

And which engine they are going to use??? The 6 litre or the 12 litre version???

Wonder if the seats are going to be factory defaulted or by Volgelstize???

And greater news is that more Wright B9TLs. In fact 450 of them. That's great.

Great job SBS.

^tamago^ SG

that's not a citaro :(

SBS7322B SG

It looks like an OC500LE. X_X

nfshp253 SG

It is a Citaro, but it's the Citaro FuelCell Hybrid Bus. Only if SBST would bring that in!
