I think these wright B9TLs are better than the E400s... Good job for CTB, hope KMB or even SBST can purchase these 2-axles B9TLs in wright body... maybe thay can try with E400 bodies too

I don't think sbs will buy 2 axles DD bus as the cost of opersting the bus is not the best compare to 3 axles also the number of passengers compare to 3 axles is not the worth to get 2 axles DD bus. just take a look on our 93 and 74 2 axles non air-con volvo bus. the cost value is also most the same as air-con 3 axles DD volvo bus operate here.

If 2-axle ADD consume less fuel than 3-axle ADD, then I think its worth buying some.. It also saves additional tyre replacement costs throughout the bus lifespan as it have 2 tyres lesser.

There's always roads tat 3x ADDs has difficulty in plying yet the loading is near to full cap for SD.

VO2x going to retire and comes E400 & 2x B9TL's launches

Both KMB & CTB do have Enviro 400

If 2 axies ADD save fuel maybe SMRT should get one and try out. I don't think sbs will get one to try. 2 axies can carry only 89 to 90 passengers compare to 3 axies 110 to 120. the new yellow 2 axies internal look very nice like a coach.

Still hoping for e good old days of LA, LO2x, O305, LO3x, VO2x, VO3x conquering the roads.

A total of least 1300 of them on e road.

Leyland's gone - only Olympian went over to Volvo.

Mercedes dun produce double decks anymore.

Only manufacturer that still not in e show is MAN.

Scania does not have 2x ADD as yet. I believe ADL & Volvo now created 2x ADD is because of mostly Hong Kong's need (though actually we do need them).

As for Scania, they rule everywhere le.
