SMRT with its rojak style return..

SMB42P SG

Not sure if there will be any changes in the future but I think 172 has gotten a relatively sizeable fleet add of 3 buses; 1 Rigid and 2 DDs, bringing it to a total of 19 buses. Was cameo spotting today and here are the buses I spotted:

Permanent Buses Spotted

Cameo Buses Spotted

SMB122S too..spotted during AM...

SMB122S too..spotted during AM...

So that would be 20 buses. I once saw a duty card having duty number 172PM12, so that means its AP01 to AP12, S101 to S107 and S201 assuming that AP90 and AP91 are gone.

carbikebus SG

Yes...

Was on an A95 (my maiden ride) and wanted to see its performance on TPE... but BC was crawling at 35kmh... smh

Only as the bus arrived at Sembawang Rd did the BC realised he fked up... DDU alr show huge delay...

The bus then went faster than a Ferrari...

With 28 buses running at 1hr 07mins runtime,The poor BCs had to crawl somewhere.

carbikebus SG

S3 & S34 runtime also adjust with the latter added 6 mins.

SMB5007J SG

SBS6784 have 2 perm sticker paste together (one on top/one below).

First one is sv138. 2nd one indicate "PAR72". Not sure what it mean

8778 (138B perm bus) also have similar perm sticker (but it is side by side).

Part time do sv72?

Not too sure but i think i saw 172S202 as well for weekdays...

Then its good to take cab or taxi for transport . and there is a tool Ubergo by which u can get your fare estimates before riding and check that ur ride is in your budget or not.

TIB990A SG

sorry for the very late post, but on 3rd Oct 2016, SG1719S was on 167 that morning and I've been noticing SG1093M (and SG1094K today) on 261 lately

SMB5007J SG

got see the duty code? Till now we still cannot establish the duty codes for the 2 buses on 307A...

307S103

SMB42P SG

307S103

The other slot should likely be 307S104... coz i dun see any 307A trips for 307S101, 307S102, 307S105, 307S201 and 307S202 thus far.. unless its an AP slot...

SMB42P SG

SMB339J with DDU, with loud radiator sound (not sure if its radiator but its a very loud sound when bus is moving as well as if bus moving high speed)

SMB5007J SG

Today SMB315C 307AM01, first bus

SMB3163D SG

SMB339J with DDU, with loud radiator sound (not sure if its radiator but its a very loud sound when bus is moving as well as if bus moving high speed)

If i not wrong 336S - 339J already with DDU.. And don't think its the radiator, sounds abit like the sound from newer voith A22s when kickdown
