Proposed visit to HGDEP in December

SBS9819Y SG

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking of writing a letter to SBS Transit HQ for us to visit Hougang Depot in December. Besides the in-house bus assembly plant, what other good things can I talk about? I'll do a draft by next Sunday.

For the day of visit, how about first week of December? Unlike Tibs when I can just send in an email, I have to write in a letter to SBS Transit. I tried sending an email to the stupid Dorothy Lee and the reply was "We had noted your interest in visiting our depot. We will organise a trip for Friends soon (how soon?)"

Of course now you are not sure whether you can can make it for the trip but if you are interested, please tell me. It's better for me to indicated the number of interested people.

All of you are invited, and feel free to give any comments.

Yes, first week of December. That way Kai Guan, Oliver and maybe Rachel can join us. It would be nice to see a Trident on Sv. 56(heheh!)

Trident on Svc 56? Hmm, it would look rather special. I hope that Trident is on Svc 133! Razz

You should be happy you get to visit a depot, not choose and select which one you want to go. SBST has a choice not to let us in. Be grateful if they even allow us to enter a depot. Don’t throw a hissy fit about “this depot has Scanias and LOs, I’m not going!”

Hey smart guy , Did you see my smiling face ? I am only kidding !!!!!

Darryl : If you dont know how to accept opinions , please do not reply at all . Ignore my posts .

I dislike scania buses , is there anything wrong with that ? I dont take these posts seriously . Friends who knows me for who I am , they know I am not that sort of person who is so fussy with everything . Stop targetting me and please Peace Out .

P.S Stop getting involved in any disagreements with Windy and I or Windy and FS or others . You are only adding fuel to fire .

Anyway for your info , Windy and I have chatting privately , we have respected each other point of view and there is not much problems now .

Thanks

Peace Out !!

Ok , lets get back to the topic before its get out of hand .

Should be no problem for you. If we are going to visit HGDEP, we will be visiting as members of the public who have great interests in buses. Darryl, Hoe Jyh and maybe others are not FOTs but they can still enter Woodlands Depot.

Another suitable phrase but in Teochew: zu wui jiu zu dui, meaning that the more you don't want it to happen, the more likelihood that it will happen, vice versa.

Yes, whether in the message board or this forum, all of us here somehow digress until it's almost irrelavant to the subject / topic.

krisgage SG

Hello ,

Please add me in for the visit thanks ! Laughing

Windy_hates_B10TLs SG

Aye, that is true, Charles and I have SOME respect for each other, but remember, if ANY of you start posting garbage, expect some criticism...espcially talk of certain buses from a certain depot, operating a route which doesn't belong to that certain depot, or some weird dream of a rocket propelled bus, hehe.

You will be put back in line Razz Please, lets have some serious chat on transport on this forum, not out of this world, childhood fantasies.

Enjoy!

SBS9818A SG

It is not that I am being a fusspot here, but you should appreciate the fact you are even allowed to enter a depot!

xin1jun2 SG

Hi everyone,

While the driving instructor of an SBS UD told me to just write in the HQ with an appropriate subject and need not specify the department which the letter will be sent to, Ziran suggested that I should not do so. So which department do you think I should write to? Customer Relations Centre or Corporate Communications Division?

How about a visit to SLBP too? If possible, we can arrange in on a same day.

SBS9818A SG

Yes, please combine both of them on the same day. Perhaps we should visit SLBP in the morning then HGDEP in the afternoon.
