BBDEP may be replacing those Volvo MK3 with full fleet MK4 DM3500s on JB services in near future. For now they are progressively transferring Volvo MK4 DM35...

oceane: i see. 4A on S103 today btw. ):

103 is long gone to SBS transit...

Volvo Olympian SG

103 is long gone to SBS transit...

No i think he reffering to the duty code S103

ZYX2005 SG

why put my dear 876 on 35?!T.T

ZYX2005 SG

No i think he reffering to the duty code S103

Duty code service 103?... i think u guys better tweak how u state SMRT duty codes lest it gets confused for service 103.

better to say 4A is now doing 851 split103 or soemthing...dun type S103..i scan leow error msg com out. also 4A means an SBS duty code.

I could have scan n read with this error

SBS duty code 4A on a Service 103 bus. normal and useless msg to state llol

type out SMb4A so as not to confuse us scanning msg ppl.

Seems like S806 didn't get any crossover from S169.

Instead, they added 1 fullday shift to S806 and adjusted all the other duties' timings under QoS Standard.

As follows...

1) Renaming second block (806 - 02) to the third block (806 - 03). The splits follow after that (04 and 05). This block is a bendy slot.
2) Creating a new second block as a rigid slot. This new slot is also doing Sundays.

Note: The new perm bus for 806 - 02: 806AM02/806PM02 is currently still not spotted on S806. However, YSRG has put the new listings on the perm roster. Do note that the new perm bus is a fleet addition and it is still doing training (as what it seems) so do expect other rigid cameos on its slot. Today was TIB 0573X.

Will update again when the bus does S806. So for now, S806 has 5 perm buses in it's fleet.

SMB 0007S

Harry Potter's favourite bus (wonder where is he now) is finally leaving 33..

And the xovers will start to get interesting.. except 560 maybe..

darn... there goes my old frens that have come to do 33 on a 2 year stint. esp that 3641 which was very enthusing these few days

can someone chuck some old frens over to 196 or 197...lol

incidentally SBS35 aint letting go on 33 despite it gone SP

Jibe: tigger's 3693 is already dead =D

On perm svc today liao.

good topic brought up and explain by Scania n113 luver.

got a few super biased opinions of my own on this

I think when they build a bus, they might had not consider engine vibrations. Prob in process of using of other body builders for differnet models. For example maybe they din consider engine vibration freq when fitting the ELBO body from Greek tank maker ELBO on the L113CRl citybus chassis type.

I oso have an opinion which states that European integral bodyybulders will consider such things. hence less virbations. Eg Citaro. of cuz shall have to explore this if i ever get to it one such integrated bodywork bus.

ZYX

Actually you can't eliminate the problem of resonance because no matter how you build the body, as long as the engine vibration matches the natural frequency of the body, it will vibrate all the same, at various engine rpms.

On the other hand, it is possible to damp these vibrations and make the rides less itchy to the ear. So my take is that those with less vibrations are able to achieve it by damping the transmission of energy to our buttocks, rather than taking into account whether the natural frequency will match whichever rpm. This should actually imply that chassis design matters too.

choww SG

SBS3722G TRG Bus based at AMDEP or HGDEP?

Not sure. Most likely HGDEP.

SBS7484P SG

well, i have observed, a really packed KUB vibrates a lot less than when it is only half packed (all seating and a few standing only) or empty.

I could have scan n read with this error

SBS duty code 4A on a Service 103 bus. normal and useless msg to state llol

type out SMb4A so as not to confuse us scanning msg ppl.

Maybe we should standardise it like whenever we type SMRT duty codes we should type the full service code (e.g. 911S201, 851S103, 911S101, etc ... ...). At least that way people who are reading a quoted post would know which service we are talking about, and also at the same time, not to confuse others
