I still think Ng Ser Miang had better sense than Saw. She killed off the high-class image set by Tibs in the mid 1990s. Now it is SBST and their double deck...

I actually find scrapping of ELBOs is kinda wasted. They seem to be good buses for 950 once the JB Merc are due for scrapping ... ...

Good buses for massage after all the tired muscles after shopping in JB City Square.

The aircon and the bodywork must be refurbished if really going to use them on JB. That condition will bring all the commuters to take SBST and CW link.

the JB mercz defies it age..till today i still feel like those buses are bought quite recently.

So fast scrap liao???

These buses quite nice to sit leh. Bigger chairs than the rest of SMRT fleet. Some of them Air-Con in perfect condition. Some so cold though I admit some are hot like hell.

Only standing is a big problem cos of the squeezy middle.

I'll definitely miss them.

950 frequency is crap though. It is longer than service 966.

The queues are horrifying ... ... but 902 queue is worse

Look quite weird and funny to me. =)

Think such buses will look a bit like the old SBS Volvo B57/NZMB buses in the past.

It is actually spelt as "ΕΛΒΟ" a greek word, with the second letter as Λ which is Lamda, the 11th letter in the Greek alphabet, equivalent to L in English.

Hence the pronunciation of ΕΛΒΟ as elbo, not EABO.

The batch of Scania L113CRL buses TIB833X-837K, 839E-848D are of Elbo bodywork from Greece.

Wow.Singapore's public buses use a bodywork which is from Greece which is like so unique and uncommon.Scania L113RL Elbo are definitely unique buses.sad that this unique feature has to go off with the Elbos so fast.

Ok folks....

This is a discussion board to share our knowledge and expertise, not as a punching bag for SMRT CEO.

And please, do show her due respect, especially as far as I am concerned, I am an employee of this company. Not that I am bootlicking, but please refrain from posting degratory remarks in this forum.

Thanks.

You think whoever reading this is stupid and won't put it in context? And SPH, the press holdings one isn't some small fry either.

Creates and distributes newspapers and magazines to the 4 million population. That's no joke.

Seriously some of you guys need to use your brains a bit......some of the posts are so ridiculously biased that I don't bother reading beyond the first sentence because it is usually some boring rhetoric.
