AntiDennisLance SG 1984 SBS got B10M's already meh?? I remember the B10M's came only in 1988 or 1989 or thereabouts..
OldBussy SG The model in the picture of Bus 137 single deck from Toa Payoh interchange has got the heaviest unladen weight in its time. I remember its about 9880 to 10100 kgs unladen And the muscles from the driver's forearm always popped out when shifting gears and when steering ! Who needs gym ?
OldBussy SG Hi tamago^^... Clearer side view http://www.fotogb.com/albums/ba/batho/kmb/Daimler_Fleetline_BACo.jpg
201911 SG when the MKIIIs were new new that time in 1993, the first few were initially put on Sentosa services. after a while they were taken back by then SBS and put on normal service on SBS trunk routes
^tamago^ SG Yes. Mk III's were used. Some of the early permers were 625Z and 628R. They were later replaced by the Mk IV (Soon Chow) which runs on Svc 78 now.
iveco SG Those Mk IVs were operated by sister outfit SBS Leisure. THe same company also ran Airport services using Scania L113s.

ZYX2005 SG well the mark 3s were frist nw on 66. the sentosa mark 3s were SBS615 to SBS635. they had Tvs in them first tv mobiles. running cassettes lols. broadcast sentosa attraction ads. ZYX
sir_peanuts SG stupid question: i thought 67 is TIBS? another stupid question: why is it that on bt timah rd bus stops, the SBS transit sign used to have 77 but have to cancel later?
nenepokey SG 67 was handed from SBST to SMRT a few yrs ago, 77 the same thing that happened to 67 when Bt Batok Int was handed from SBST to SMRT
