last SG · 2016-01-31T17:03:40+00:00

SMRT with its rojak style return..

SMB42P SG

SG1700U (979AP03) spotted parking at the roadside just before Bukit Panjang LRT station after letting pax off the bus at BP MRT bus stop... BC spotted walking to up and down of the bus...at that time bus has no more pax so it will not have to stop at Blk 183 bus stop... but are they allowed to stop midway? too early?

Spotted: 0815hrs

SBS 9256 X SG

Spotted: 0815hrs

That's the last stop for Service 979 terminating at Bukit Panjang...

I think the service should have a "T" plate stating as terminating or (Terminating at Bukit Panjang) aft the service do the Yew Tee side...

SBS 9256 X SG

I was at Woodlands Temp Int...

Observation:

1) Bus parking... What a mess.... Should have done it this way....

| | | | | | | | \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \

2) 70 passengers queue then deploy DDs ah... I wonder how they going to do that...

Mostly broken speed limiters are unintentional. Would be good for these buses to be used on Airport and Express services

Those are not broken speed limiter unlike the good old buses of yesteryear,But more of a finetune by computer to the ECU to make it past the 60kmh barrier.A few of SMRT Citaros also can exceed the 60kmh limit but cant past 70kmh.

Nope..at that time and location, that 979 has not reached last stop. The official last stop is at Blk 183 along Bukit Panjang Road...but i kind of agree it is rather messy if one is not a BukitPanjang/CCK/YewTee resident...

The last stop is NOT bukit panjang MRT stop...

SMB315C SG

carbikebus SG

SG1691L - SG1699R are ready to be deployed..

SMB315C SG

Still at Woodlands Bus Park?

Yup. Along with SG5740C.

Sbs6750E SG

Ytd, Rivervale Mall shuttle used a bigger bus than last time. Long time alr or cameo?

carbikebus SG

Yup. Along with SG5740C.

I hope Wldep will get it..

lemon1974 SG

SG1691L - SG1699R are ready to be deployed..

wasted one month lifespan.....should have repainted before registering..

SMB315C SG

I hope Wldep will get it..

High chance that those 9 Citaro buses are under WLDEP, as I heard that those 9 buses are meant for additional deployments to SMRT services that ply TWRI.. Hopefully all 9 are for the Feeder and Intra-Town services..

SMB315C SG

By the way, all of the badges have been placed back. The rear stickers (Give way to buses, Bus lane operating hours, etc) have been changed to SMRT ones.. The rear door announcement has been replaced with the standard "Doors are closing lalalalala"..

So far no changes for the interior..

SMB315C SG

Yup. Along with SG5740C.

As SG5740C, it might be somehow similar to the 13 earlier units (SMB5892U - SMB5904U) BUT without tree guards..

SMB315C SG

TIB832Z 's front EDS has been corrupted ever since it appeared on 960 last Sunday..

Hopefully WLDEP will not change out the EDS to Mobitec..

SMB42P SG

Something weird happened...

SMB92U (172AM06) spotted exiting KJE and turn right into Brickland Road with pax and 172 EDS on!! Bus able to do downroute with pax onboard?

Bus later on bunched with both TIB705H and SG1705G which had already bunched since the Lot One stop...

Time spotted exiting KJE: 0923hrs...

SBS5010P SG

nowadays alot of SBS Transit citaros can easily move off without closing the front and exit doors. Not sure about their speed limiters.

carbikebus SG

You can try a few of svc 15 Citaros..Those previous batch usually can speed after their warranty ends..For me i dont mind if the speedo stuck at 63kmh as long the acceleration is finetuned for better pick up speed..When your bus have good acceleration you have no worries about exiting bus bays..

1990chenyu SG

what

SMB5007J SG

Svc 920 and 922 buses spotted with paper stating that last bus will be extended to 1am...
