oic.. sorry dude.. misunderstooded.. Mr. Green

SMRT buy buses in masses thets why they buy again in a few years time… unlike sbst, they bought little by little recently except fo b9tl

manjieass SG

so if u say they gets you to destinations, would you pay $2++ to ride on an NEL train which is fast and cooling or rather pay $2++ to ride on an old kawasaki train which jerks so much and is warm and stuffy?? = CAC/OAC nissan vs B9TL??

i don pay money for nothing.. a few comments do not harm in anyway..

no feedbacks = no improvement..

sBs_boy SG

Yes.. I do agree that no feedbacks = no improvement.. But have you guys thought about it ? Is your feedback constructive or not constrctive at all ? This is where it lies the main problem. In other countries, when the people give feedbacks, they feedback in a way that they are not scolding or complaining to the companies. They feedback on HOW the company should improve in some areas that they are not doign well in. Over here, from the experience of reading the STI and from various Forums, it seems that you guys are too pampered. And alot of times, i see no constructive stuff inside the so called "Feedbacks" to the companies. All i see are hatred words inside as if the writer is trying to get back to the company. I'm not pointing fingers. But you guys go ahead and think about it. Is YOUR feedback a good one ? Or is it just a flaming letter trying to think about it ? Think about it before you give any other "Flaming" Letter.

For ev1's info, CSS608 has a reduction of 3 buses wef 03/09/06, just saw the 608TQ04[i tink i got it correct] time sheet on Wednesday evening. The description reads:reductionof 3 buses
i believe CSS186L, CSS194M and CSS203X went to SMRT...[i might b wrong] but these buses have not been seen on CSS608 for quite a while

Volvo Olympian SG

FYI , I just saw CSS193R with SMRT livery travelling along WDL Ave 9 today.

SMRT can buy the latest UD buses. Or maybe a Scania K230UB?

carbikebus SG

Our KL Neighbour already buy more zero step buses for it’s citybuses fleet,SMRT still with their low step buses,At least SBST had 35% zero step buses in their fleets

MitEvolution SG

nissan diesel bus chassi is not coming to sg.

swee_heng SG

i dont think SMRT will buy new buses. They may just convert their current Nissan Diesels to WABs. Mr. Green

off_service SG

Not any bus can be converted to low entry or WABs. The bus chassis itself has to be a LE chassis. For example, the B10Ms, or in this instance, the UDs, cannot be converted to WABs due to the chassis structure.

SBS9828X SG

not to mention cost to cover against the remaining lifespan

Scania N113CRB luver SG

What about the VO2x, VO3x and LO3x? Are they LE and can they be converted to WABs?

Scania SG

No, they are not low-floor, they have steps.

The Scania L113CRL however, is a low floor chassis, just that TIBS went to put an aircon underneath, if not, Scania L113CRLs would be the first low floor buses.

ComfortDelgro sold their L113CRLs.

Two wrong decisions done by both operators on the same kind of buses, IMO.

Scania N113CRB luver SG

You forgot about the ELBOs. They should be the first low-floor/LE buses. Should be LE, cuz only the entry is stepless, the exit has a step.

Scania SG

I wouldn't qualify that, it isn't low floor to the rear door, like what a real low floor bus would be.

The chassis is low floor.

The following chassis are low floor (at least to the rear door)
Dennis-Dart SLF and the less popular Lance SLF, Trident (and the Enviro 400 and 500 variants)
Volvo-B10BLE, B7RLE, B12BLE, B9SALE, B9L, B7L, B10L, B7TL, B9TL, B10TL, B6BLE, B12BLEA, B7LA.

Mercedes Benz- O.405N, O.405N^2, O.405NH, OC500LE, O.530 (and its Variants, O.530G, O.530BZ), O.520, O.405GN and probably some Brazilian chassis.
Also, the MB815D can also be fitted with a wheelchair space right beside the door.

Scania-L94UB, L94UA, K94UB, K230/270/310UB, K310UD, N94UD, N94UB, L113C(R/L)L, N113C(R/L)L (However, I don't think any N113CRL were produced, just the N113CLLs (left hand drive))

MAN-11.220HOCL, 18.310 HOCL, 31.310, NL202, NL232, NL262, NL263 and many more.

And a lot of other models.

Scania N113CRB luver SG

So maybe the N113CRB represents the basic/standard bus?? Whereas, CRL represents low-floor? Question

Eh yes but I don't think its the basic chassis, its just at the standard height, N is the engine position, 11 is the engine displacment in liters, 3 is the series, R or L at the second last letter represents which side the bus driver drive on.

There is no N113CRL built, only N113CLLs, which are left hand drive.

ComfortDelgro sold their L113CRLs.

where did ComfortDelgro sell their L113CRL to? i can only see 3 of them PA908L , PA912Z and PA919E to Westpoint. What about the rest?

SMRT always make wrong decisions with their buses
