Anyone notice the MK 3 cover on the floor that locate near to the rear of the bus had been sealed up? 160, 170 buses should have it...

must be due to the smuggling case

I dunno does anyone noticed tis during off peak hrs at Kranji.
There's tis group of 3x CW1 buses tat would arrive very close to each other. Sometimes it would end up brunching to and fro KRJ & JB CIQ.
At 1st I thought CW1's freq is super good even though running close to kosong, only to realise it's something to do w/ layover. CW1 does not even have a proper layover.
KRT, Larkin dun call. Kranji no one bothers to make 1 round to form up for layover. JB CIQ has only 1 bay for CW1, 1 bay for CW2... where gotch enough?
Goes to show their efficiency level w/ CW3's Cafe terminal mess.
-
as for CW3
7 CW3/ CW4 parking at their corner @ JUE.
Can't imagine amt of carbon monoxide produced w/ their engine on
-
TIB1185B and TIB1045Y are back!
TIB1185B - Overheated engine due to water leakage.
TIB1045Y - Gearbox problem. -
TIB1225U had inverted Bus Stopping sign at the rear.
-
TIB877U has corrupted bus stopping sign in front.
-
TIB874C rear EDS is not working, displayed nothing all the time even though the front and side EDS is displaying something...
TIB889K has faulty rear EDS which is similar to SMB90A's faulty rear EDS...
-
Sv 960 & 961 is really erratic aft 8pm.
I'd thought to find long headways for 160, to realise e mess on 960 & 961 as well.
CW1 bus arr would cool down aft 8pm. Sometimes it could take 9 mins for next bus to appear aft front bus has departed.
Usually the coach & K310UB will arrive brunched up. Aft that headways is as long as 30 mins for next CW1 from JB CIQ to arrive.
-
Unknown habit with ad on 106 with a very very interesting eds.
the eds will go from 106 Shenton Way > 106 Shenton Way via bukit baton blar blar then restart itself. However, when it restarts, it will "fade in". Seems like mobitec eds can adjust the light intensity output.
-
Every Saturday, the empty TQ slot for 187 will be done a random rigid. It will reach Block 320 Jurong East Stop at about 7.20am to 7.25am (towards Boon Lay) and Jurong Poly Stop at about 8.20am to 8.23am like that(towards WRI).
-
They should stop 961 from crossover to other service like 190/911.That would at least prevent any long waiting for passengers.Another big old problem both side(WL/AM) love to chiong on certain roads if you knew what i mean.Should convert 2 WL Split duties to full day IMHO.See 854 used to 11AM/PM-12 Split and after revised to 13AM/PM-11 Split everything is smooth even for off peak

961 doesn't crossover to 911..but 903/901/964.

I think 961 is more of run time issue.
960 is added on w/ peak within peak dispatch. 7 mins for some period, and with lack of buses e other peak period freq is compromised.
Tat affects the post 8pm dispatches from WRL
-
Aha so what's your suggestion sbst275?Add few buses or revised the run time?

Revise the freq if they want to maintain the headways n fleet.Actually it's not unique to 960. Sv 180 and gang are facing tis same problem...
