Correction: SMB1H will be given to KJDEP instead of AMDEP. Will still be deployed to service 190, provided no more hiccups.

No wonder. I asked AMDEP BCs and they had no clue at all.

851 will be taking in the OC500LEs once the 2nd one is registered. Not sure how many units. Confirmed liao.

Still, thanks for the info. Though I don't know what is the likelihood of the time it appears. If AMDEP then easier, it's one of the first 2 buses from NBR.

Deploy OC500LEs on service 854 next will be even better, can compete with service 25's Volvo B9TL

854 is still in discussions. Hopefully they will also give OC500LEs there. Makes Yishun more high-class.

Are you 100% sure that the first 2 buses on 190 from NBR are from AMDEP?

That's what 9888Y told me... Though I'm not sure if in between 190AM01 and 190AM02 there are any Kranji buses.

0600 - 190AM01 - rotates between 1177A and 1042E

0610 - 190S202 - KJDEP slot mind you. Perm bus 1150B

0620 - 190AM02 - rotates between 1177A and 1042E

Thanks for the clarification. S2 duties very hard to catch. Thats why I often see it as 2 AMDEP bus consecutively. =)

Most powerful would be Volvo B9LA and Citaro G ? If im not wrong, the B9LA would have 360Bhp and Citaro Gs have 354Bhp (OM457hLA)

Volvo B9LA have the same engine as B9TL as there are D9B310 and D9B360

Powered_By_CNG SG

The Citaro G would still be more driveable than the B9LA because it has a large displacement 12L engine which produces higher torque at low engine speeds, whereas the B9LA has a lower displacement 9.4L engine. Both the Citaro G and B9LA are available in CNG versions, the former with a 326hp 12L engine and the latter with a 300hp 9.4L engine.

You can't tell by looking at 12L engine or 9.4L engine

but i think that MAN lion' city G and Volvo B12BLEA will be better :D:D

It's common sense. A higher capacity engine is able to reach its peak torque at lower revolutions than a smaller capacity one.

And how do you "see" torque?
