I saw some VOs on Svc 81 too Razz

The frequency for each bus wasn't that bad...thought the bus felt very empty though.

Anybody saw any bus on 985? Any regos known yet?

tranquilice SG

I took service 97 yesterday (27 July), the LO 3-axles was very empty from Jurong East all the way to Marina Centre.

Noticed that the fleet of both services 97 and 111 are still using double deckers, I have not seen any single deckers yet. Service 106 is still using bendy buses.

Service 106 ply Temasek Blvd and Temasek Ave towards Marina Centre terminal, however, towards Orchard, it does not ply the above-mentioned roads but Raffles Ave instead.

AntiDennisLance SG

Whats the load like for 106? Healthy? Empty? Scrappable?

tranquilice SG

I was at the bus stop opposite Marina Square cineplex, 3 service 106 bendy passed by but nobody boarded them. As for the rest of the route, I dunno.

AntiDennisLance SG

Actually, I dont really see how 106 can fare any better than 77. Commuters in Bukit Batok and Buona Vista who might take 106 to Orchard are in fact mostly already taking the MRT.

Off service and I were suntec yesterday . 111 with the volvo buses except Dennis Trident , 97and 502 only operates LO 3 axles and mercedes . Bus 81 has around 13 VOs yesterday full fleet . The single decks plus a few VOs has been taken out .

The load on sv 106 isn't that fantastic. Apart from SP students and some office workers, most of the time outside peak hours it's rather empty.

off_service SG

I know TIB 951 P is on svc 985.

The fleet consists mainly of some ex-989 O405s and some Volgren Hinos.

Just seeing a Sv. 985 bus makes my blood boil. Most of you should know the reason why.

Zilchster SG

Heya,

Took Svc74 today...SBS 9533 or what in the morning...

It seems that Svc 74 and Svc 165 have started to get more air-conditioned buses in their fleet...as for wat kind...prob a mix lar...it's almost two aircon then one non-aircon bus on 74...

I guess the buses came from the amended services...

SBS9818A SG

Yes, last Monday for the very FIRST time I got on a 3-axle VO on Sv. 74, not too bad. Performance-wise along Lornie Rd was, ugh!

TIB1186Z SG

Well I guess u are unlucky, considering VO 3-Ax are common on svc 74, and my experience on them were rather good.

Well, I am pleased to announce that 2 AC buses had somewhat replaced 2 VO-2Ax on svc 74 today. I am very certain that they come from the amended services. They are:
SBS707X and,
at least another Mk III which rego I can't catch.

Moreover, a Scania CAC appeared on svc 70 today, and svc 80 seem to have quite a bit of Tridents today.

Airbus330Captain SG

Some Scania OAC and CAC buses from Bedok (THAnKS GOODNESS !! ) has been transferred to braddel (OAC) and CAC (AMK) . Someone saw about 20 CAC scanias in AMK .

Zilchster SG

SBS 707X i tink is a Svc 156 bus

off_service SG

I believe some excess Scanias are transferred to AMKDEP as there is not enough space for them to go BRAM.

The Scanias should be replacing the LO 2 axles in Toa Payoh. With the LO 2 axles gone, sv 157 may have shorter headways, as one LO 2 axles may need 2 single deckers to cover it.

SBS9818A SG

Yes, SBS 707X is a HGDEP guy and is perm on Sv. 156! It was my only favourite Mk III, considering I treat them with disdain. Now it's gone, time to drool over SBS 2747 of Sv. 156
