Airbus330Captain SG HGDepot was the first depot to receive the LO 3 axles before they were transferred to other depots after the arrival of VO 3 axles.
iveco SG If I'm nto wrong, Svc 10 was the first to get VO3X and VO2X (NAC). Which depot had conrol over those buses? BBDEP or BNDEP? I am really glad that the VO3X are dominant in my district. I like all of them, especially those with rear windscreen. One of the more decent buses around. Trident: Only taken once (9675 on Svc 147). Don't really know much about this bus. VSO: I have not boarded one, so I can't be the judge. LO3X: never quite liked Leyland buses, from LA era until now. The lower saloon of the LO3X usually has some diesel smell. Can't figure out why.
Airbus330Captain SG I believe Bndepot were in total control of svc 10 at that time . You havent board a VSO ? I feel very lucky . I took all the 50 VSOs including the special ones. When the VSO were new, I went around Singapore just to ride on every single VSO , 9800 to 9849 and the specials too. The hardest for me was SBS9837U which at time was perm on svc 70.
carbikebus SG In fact HGDEP receive almost all new buses before handed out to other depot previously. Ok for my vote 1 Dennis Trident,Particularly those deployed on S89 & S51 if you know what i mean 2 Volvo Olympian 3x Batch 1,I got a feeling that batch 1 can speed more than Batch 2/3. 3 Leyland Olympian 3x,Powerful acceleration for a DD,The only weakness is the bolt-on bodyworks 4 Volvo Olympian 3x Batch 2/3,Nice interior for an old buses,For batch 3 prefer those with dress rims. 5 Volvo B10TL Super Olympian
delonchew SG 1. Volvo Olympian 3-axle (Rego. 95xx and 96xx) 2. Leyland Olympian 3-axle 3. Volvo Super Olympian 4. Dennis Trident My hope is that someone will bring in the MAN 24.310.
iveco SG Doesn't seem quite likely at the moment. By the way, does the Centroliner use the same engine as the 24.310? I understand earlier batches used the same Cummins engine as the Trident, but the later ones had MAN engines.
sbs&tibs SG 1st: Volvo Super Olympian 2nd: Dennis Trident 3rd: Volvo Olympian 3 Axle (96xx series) 4th: Volvo Olympian 2 Axle 5th: Leyland Olympian 3 Axle
Acx1688 SG FAv 1. VO3X [SBS9441C sv198-can speed! ] 2. LO3X 3. Dennis Trident 4. VO2X 5. VSO[slow compared to Dennis Trident]
Halide SG Dennis Tridents are my fave. Fast yet silent and stable. The only irritating thing is the stairway not leading directly to the exit. VO3X third batch not far behind Dennis Tridents.
sErviCe17rOx SG 1 VO3X (esp. 9518 R..my fave VO3X on service 17..not sure whether its still on the service.. =/) 2 VSO 3 Tridents (they just look damn sexy to me.. ) 4 LO3X 5 VO2X
