SBST bought new buses?

sBs_boy SG

You would know that it is a rumor when SBST did NOT annouce anything about this and that we have seen no news about that particular bus. If they had really bought that bus, we would have heard news about a SD WABs. And if you think that the thread is NOT a rumor but a Fact, Why dont YOU show me dsome concrete prove that it is a Fact and that SBST is buying that particular model ? My dear boy, theres alot stuffs that you dont know. I would prefer that you go open up your history textbook, revise on them before you come in here again.

sBs_boy SG

If you think that you are very sure of what the thread is saying... PROVE ME WRONG with Evidences. If not, I would suggest it as a case close. Not going to waste my time arguing with ppl like you on threads which were way overdue.

That is just a rumor, whatever thing which is not verified by any company is a rumor, what if I say Y_shun loves a particular Miss X and I keep saying he loves, it is still a rumor what you KID. CHECK THE DICTIONARY MEANING OF RUMOR BEFORE YOU POST.

I have asked a B9TL driver whether they have other new buses, he say don't have.

I ask you if you prove that there are other new buses, WHERE IS YOUR PROOF? The company dint even say a single thing about another new bus, SO HOW ARE THEY GOING TO SAY THAT THEY HAVE NEW BUSES OTHER THAN B9TLS?

Y_Shun ah, stop fantasizing, no new buses, you go ask the company, drivers, they all say no.

there arent many svcs that cant use DDs only svcs that go under lor chuan, stadium, seletar and changi airport... but SBST has reduced tree trimmings at certain areas so there mayb certain svces like 63, 139, 145 and 195 (lengkok bahru and henderson area)
many svces require more SDs to ply like svc 105... if the CTE bridge is removed HGDEP would definitely deploy their DENNIS tridents and b9tls XD... well thats what i hope

Y_Shun SG

Thats what I am saying.

Nobody knows if theres new buses or even if theres NO new buses.

You all also don't have any proof that there isn't any new buses?? (Ohh, oh, you said you asked the BCs)

Asking the BCs? they in management meh? Why not you ask the buying department(whatever you call) in SBST whether there are new buses? Even if they are buying new buses, would they even tell us? Rolling Eyes Doubt they will even reply you, thats why discussions comes.

And look, I was just enquiring about this, I didn't even stress theres surely a new bus.

If you all just care about route amendment, bus trips you took, bus cameos, I think all these forums should rather close down since it is useless.

Even starting a topic(that you say it is not real/true) that is different & something worth to discuss is so hard, and you get responses such as "case closed", "not possible", "rumour"...what for having any forums? Rumours(whether or not there is substantial proof) sometimes are also worth to discuss...

If you think it is not worth to discuss, then don't reply to the topic =)

What i think of this bus could be a OAC Scania but it could be Merz coz it has a purple thing at the side.

SBS1985C SG

Firstly this is a NAC Bus so MERCZ and Scania OAC are out. There is also a seat facing the walkway which mean MK II are out. So there is only Scania NAC left. So if its perm its SBS 3580 Z if not then its other NAC Scanias.

SBS3625D SG

Since the Aussies are great fans of the L94UB, maybe SBST can sell off their only one. Laughing

sBs_boy SG

Oh Boy.. you really dont learn your lesson...

Ive mentioned before. If they had ordered new buses, we would be seeing them by on the roads by NOW !

Secondly, i did NOT said that you was stressing that there were new buses bought. I only said that it was a rumor that they bought the bus. Dont you put words into my mouth. yes.. you did ask.. and i told you that it was a rumor. It was you YOURSELF who didnt believe.

Starting a topic ? HELLO.. you are DIGGING an OLD TOPIC. Come on.. There is a reason on why people stopped discussing about that topic. If it was worth the time, people would have continue to discuss about the topic.

Rumors Worth discussing ? That will be Fantasy My dear boy.. You need a dictionary to help you check up the word Fantasy and rumor ??

Lastly.. Did i EVER said that i was only interested in bus rides, bus cameos and route amendment ? DID I SAY THAT ? Answer is NO ! So.. Before you go on and try to think ways of getting back at me... I would suggest that you yourself go reflect on what you had done and where it went wrong.

Dont be a yaya papaya and act as if you know about everything in this world. BOY.. Theres alot MORE that you need to learn.

Just to add… some time back, I was talking with a Volvo B9TL bus driver on route 147 (SBS 7325T) (this was just sometime after route 147 became an “official” WAB service), and he mentioned that SBS Transit will be introducing single-deck wheelchair-accessible buses next year. He added that buses are scrapped depending on the condition of their engines, but 20 years is definitely bye-bye for them.

swee_heng SG

But if the 20 yr old bus still has good engines? SBST might sell them out

It is 100% no. SBST & SMRT wont buy open top buses , what if it rains , then the passengers will be drenched! When the whether is damn hot , passengers might even get sunburn!!!!

swee_heng SG

Oh ya. the dark blue chairs proved that it is a NAC bus.

The_Bus_Guide SG

The life span of public buses is 17 years. It is good if SBS could sell the buses before the retirement age. The extra lifespan to 20 years is only possible with the approval of the LTA. No further extension is allowed after that. If there is a buyer for the buses, then SBS can sell them. If not, then there is no choice but to send for scrap.

stooper SG

So do you mean the Bobbie Gymbus is going to be scrapped next year? Or can extend COE like normal private car?

The_Bus_Guide SG

Bobbie was re-registered (YL 8508R)and have 5-year COE which runs out in Nov 2009. If the COE isn’t re-newed, Bobbie will have to be scrapped when the current COE runs out or when the owners decide to de-register it.

SBS1985C SG

Heh... now more Scania come over to BRAM already. Twisted Evil
