well now finally we know which bus left Laughing

Acx1688 SG

Nope, SBS9340K stayed with sv196 even when e bus was stripped of ads and the B9s mentioned came in...

SBS3625D SG

Just remembered to ask something regarding 9035S.

Is the trend of the LOs shifting towards tight gearboxes?

Scania N113CRB luver SG

U mean gear changes faster than the VO3x brothers? If so , its yes i think , if im not wrong bah . Cuz someone told me that the Cummins engine can handle the stresses involved while the Volvo engine cant . Think so bah. Wink

gorby107 SG

I suspect that SBS9547G and SBS9540A become SP

TWS4793 SG

Three suspected new LO3Xes for Service 168 in light of the increased frequency for Service 161 and 168. The buses are:

SBS 9030E
SP AMDEP 168 AMDEP

SBS 9054L
55 AMDEP 168 AMDEP

SBS 9101J
SP AMDEP 168 AMDEP

All three LO3Xes into Service 168 are as yet, unconfirmed.

BusSpeeder SG

errrrr where do they paste the bus/sp sticker? and is sbs 2813j becoming a sp bus anytime? i’ve seen it on cameos.

TWS4793 SG

Suspected new weekend only deployments for Service 60 (crossover from Service 157). They are:

SBS 9096R
Weekdays: 157 BRBP
Weekends: SP/60 BRBP

SBS 9147C
Weekdays: 157 BRBP
Weekends: SP/60 BRBP

As someone mentioned, BRBP LO3Xes become spares during weekends. All the above are unconfirmed, but I do see them almost every week.

SBS3625D SG

Nono.......as in, it is now increasingly common to find an LO3X with the gearbox tuned to that of the VO3X. i.e gears switch at significantly higher rpms.

SBS 233 X SG

Do note that there are not X-oevr from 157. 157's LO3x are running around on weekends, they will use 238 and 26's buses.

Scania N113CRB luver SG

Oh .. Haha .. So far i havent see any LO3x tuned to that , cuz the Cummins sounds angry (i've seen one tuned to that before , think is SBS9011K . Thats the only LO3x i've seen tuned to that of VO3x.) Smile

Oh ya talking abt SBS9011K , when the engine reaches very high rpm and shifts gear , the bus gives a nasty jerk . There's one time when the gears got stucked for a moment then the engine's rpm was sibei high , then the gearbox suddenly upshift , the whole bus got a hard jerk.

[email protected] SG

I also think so too, SBS9547G, SBS9560S always seen on 89 after the B9s came in to 80, while SBS9540A has been running around.

Anyway, SBS9541Y and SBS9652K have been confirmed as SP with the SP stickers.

Suspect SBS9654E has also became SP too.

SBS2671B SG

SBS2627E : BNDEP 36 BNDEP 196/196e

So which bus replaces it on 36 ?

SBS9806J SG

R u sure?

gorby107 SG

SBS9652K is still perm on Sv 107, took it today and saw the sticker

SBS9540A

(HG 80) to (HG SP) saw the sticker

Suspect that SBS9635K is SP as it has been running around lately

Suspect SP:
SBS9541Y(I took it on Sv 80 last week and can't see any label),
SBS9560S(saw it on Sv 89 yesterday),
SBS9547G(on Sv 153 today),
SBS9635K(on HG Sv today)
SBS9654E(saw it on Sv 80 a few days ago)

service_238 SG

Its never perm on 36 in the first place. There's only 12 buses on 36 and there's usually a perm bus going for mx on weekdays and that's when 2627E comes in to replace the perm bus. That's why you see 2627E looking perm on 36 when its actually still a SPARE.

SBS9806J SG

Then wasn't it SP/36?

service_238 SG

yes BN SP/36.

BusSpeeder SG

ah nobody seen my reply. where to find the bus sticker to say whether dat bus is perm on dat service or is sp only? any1 can tell me?
