anyone have any idea on the schedule trip timings for mk3 sbs856 for 197 and sbs862 for 195 timings? :)

I boarded it at People's Park heading twds Bedok around 1530hrs yesterday. You can try your luck though the ride wasn't very impressive. The bus seemed to be struggling even though it was quite empty.

LOL. Btw, do something to your reputation & post something more reliable/not Captain Obvious anymore instead of picking on nitty gritty details from my posts and other members' as well. That will do you good.

Still have quite a few. Easiest to take is SBS858T that serves Townlink 359 and the bus is quite empty in the afternoons.

HAHA yes. Everyday it is on Sv 359. Was waiting for a bus to Pasir Ris Central at my usual bus stop when 858T came by chance, not specifically waiting for it in any way. Just my lucky day to sit it at last before it goes. And hell yeah, they topped up the A/C gas before it was due for de-reg.

On another note, 879H MIA from Sv 358 again today. Replaced by 5039H today.

SMRT citaros have better aircon than SBST ones. SBST citaros have ugly interior in my opinion

Don't agree. SMRT Citaro air con are weak as well and very dull interior. Plus that annoying and redundant in board announcements makes the ride noisy and irritating.

SBST Citaros are better, at least can ride in peace.
