Hi people,

Captain saw a Leyland Olympian Superbus operating on 168. It is SBS 9195 M, an ex 166 bus.

SBS 9845 on Service 161!!!

SBS9818A SG

That's great. It would be spectacular to see Dennis Tridents and VSOs on Sv. 161, eye candy! Laughing

9842 went off service in morning but went back in service with 161 in afternoon . 9849 went off service in morning and the bus operated on bus 76 in the afternoon . I think 9849 will be back with 168 tomorrow .

Ohh yes !!! I saw 143 with VSO today , I didnt see the licence plate cause the bus was travelling very fast in the expressway heading towards jurong east ( I presumed ) .

SBS 9846 op on Svc 168. However, it broke down today due to some technical problems. Hmh, it seems that this bus has a lots of problems like SBS 9818.

SBS9818A SG

Haiya. I took SBS 9800A and it broke down. No big deal.

This morning “TIB1186Z” saw 9849 at YCK area, at the road leading to AMDEP. The bus was off service of course but carried the 168 desto.

Along AMK Avenue 9? What time?

Hi Darryl I saw the bus at 0655 today. The bus I was taking stopped at the junction and as I was sitting by the window, I was able to see the entire front quite clearly as there was sufficient light.

BTW, 9810 seems to be permanent on 76, I had seen it always departing YCK at about 0655 choke full of St. Nic. girls

Updates Updates!

I shall go thru the new VSOs today with their svcs:

SBS 9835 on Svc 72
SBS 9836 on Svc 70
SBS 9837 on Svc 70
SBS 9838 S on Svc 70
SBS 9839, SBS 9840 J and SBS 9841 G on Svc 133
SBS 9842 D on Svc 161
SBS 9843 B on Svc 55
SBS 9844 Z on Svc 161
SBS 9845 on Svc 161 (seen on Svc 25 today)
SBS 9846 on Svc 168
SBS 9847 R on Svc 161
SBS 9848 on Svc 168
SBS 9849 on Svc 168.

I think 9843B is on scv 161 now that SBS decides to remove the VSO bus from 55 fleet .

Bus 9846 broke down today at WL interchange because of engine problem . The bus driver paniced quite a bit because he is new to the bus and told me that the power is totally off , he couldnt even start the bus .

off_service SG

The bus was later covered by SBS 9832 H till 11 plus. I think that is the last trip before going back to depot.

Airbus330Captain SG

I wonder how is the VSO fleet doing today, i gonna checked it out later , may have a bit of spare time .

SBS9818A SG

If the power is totally off, that means the battery has gone flat. Not suprising. I encounted the exact same problem on 9800A.

SBS9816E SG

I think my fav Svc 133 does have 3 VSOs. Darryl told me that he saw SBS9839R. Charles & Fs spotted SBS9840J, and I have sat on SBS9841G! Wah hoo! I love Volvo Super Olympian!

Latest update :

9835 op for bus 31 today is a bus service 72's bus .

SBS9818A SG

SBS 9840J broke down at Jack’s house! The rear plug door could not be closed, and everyone had to alight and take the next bus. I’m going to write a letter to SBST about this, although it’s not the first time for me(SBS 9800A broke down on me too!)
