In case many of you didn't notice, there seems to be some KUB Window 'Sickness' going on in KJDEP for the OCs. A couple of OCs have new KUB Windows. I think it's due to complaints of the old window design.

OCs 'infected'

Before (23/1):

After (26/1):

So my guess was correct; they are replacing those rather-useless peepholes with real windows.

Well, they aren't exactly useless, it's a start of setting a new trend.

did SMRT do something to improve their buses' airconditioning? It's been a long time since I took a bus with "microwave" aircon

Today's 1st day 185 got more bus. the sequence...

SBS101T --> SBS551C (SBS8050D) --> SBS169Z --> SBS8318H --> SBS8325L --> SBS9019P --> SBS8436A --> SBS8439S --> SBS3914U --> SBS8437Y --> SBS8442G (SBS8438U cameo on 199)

*Correct me if i'm wrong

I dunno where SBS8440L & SBS9003J slot

SBS8439S S Shift bus ? OMG =.= coz i saw same driver throughout the day. i tot the 2 extra mercs are S Shift buses. Suspect 8440L also S shift

I must say that the frequency is improved... no bunching i suppose

correcto both k230s are S shifts..

on average their first trips is almost every alternate trip is an S shift.

loki_chaos SG

Erm...first time I took the SMRT's new buses(with the reg no SMB) they have this annoucement for door closing...(did anyone mentioned this?! I just scanned through the pages...)

And erm...some SBST single decks don't have TVMobile? Like one of the mercedes one...then again, some have...some dont have. And there isn't TVM for SMRT...wonder how they got 2million viewers just by having it on SBST itself...

There are cards in the market where you can connect to your computer and watch TV mobile

SBS 169Z seems to replace SBS 8318H slot..

I noticed that many OC500LEs, if not all, have the "brick pattern" cleaned off.
