Bus Observations (2011)
-
Seems that TIB1070Z advertisement is gonna last longer than TIB1047S? WLDEP covered up the rear side(engine) of TIB1070Z, which was previously in SMRT livery after changing the engine parts, with a same advertisement just that it's newly printed.

Should be following TIB1073R footsteps.

Sv 160 buses ponten again
Not a single bus captured by iris to be roving in local leg towards Jurong.
iris kept on giving wrong figures.. Like at Jurong East, Estd waiting time 60 mins. But after some time, this bus no longer appears at WDL CIQ.
-
now JB CIQ estd departure from 17 mins, readjusted to 25 mins..
2nd time within 20 mins le
So the bus has appeared at WDL CIQ

Seems like TIB 1105H's rear is noiser than the other Mercedes MB O405G Habit buses than usual; I suspect that it's the lack of the underfloor air-conditioning unit no longer buffing out the sound from the engine compartment there.
SMRT should consider adding some noise buffers to where the air- conditioning unit was before the fire and repair.
Not exactly completely happy with how TIB 1105H was repaired, but considering how badly damaged the bus was before the repair, I think they have done a good job overall. I think what this bus needs, besides engine noise buffering, are new bell and door closing chimes.

Why is there sometimes a LO3x coming out from BBDEP with its EDS showing 91?

Also, it produce more exhaust... IDK why it sounded like a OC when it's idling...

20 mins headway for 179A sometime last week evening slot. That very explains how come chickenlittle2 can claim 179 behind trips empty. The front buses all got delayed and stucked. If 179 dispatch is smooth wun even get into all these unbalance loading especially adding with pt student crowd. Sometimes a LO3x could be stucked at 27211 for 6 mins.

This seem to be the case for refurbished bendies, refurb-ed Striders did not suffer from this problem, not sure for the DAFs.
I rode TIB868X after refurbishment, the insulation was somehow "weakened" after refurbishing, before refurbishment, the bus was quieter.

AMDEP 853 might be taking in all 10 Citaros, while the OCs will be redeploy to WLDEP 858 and Lances will take over those slots since some AMDEP OCs + 106P & 113T on 858 today

They might be clearing out some buses (OCs) from both KJ and AM and plan to give them both while 858 becomes a full WAB fleet.
