101 also has got far better frequency now, and its now practically full WAB with a couple of B10Ms now and then.
109's frequency has also improved to the point where I couldn't believe I was looking at the same miserable service that made me late for school back in 2006. And there's also plenty of WAB.
Edit: In before lock!
but i am potentially missing out on snapping a dm3500 doing sv101, which i have not cleared.
when 168 got Wrights, someone STOMPed that 161 no new bus.......... who ah!?
must be someone from northeast one.......

Get a life.. M1- One life, live it.
240 is not downgraded rite?
Pretend to sit in a story, SBS is the boss, 34 the bad guy, and 163 the victim. SBS kept treating 34 gd, and THOSE THAT R 4 163 R GIVEN TO 34!!!!
so basically, SBS is neglecting the fact that 163 is in need and nvr do A BIT to help, except taking old shits from 83 ( and giving it new citaros too!!!)
This story is nvr gonna have a gd ending...

If so, then why not redeploy all HGDEP Citaros to 158?
Or Citaros to 103?
Or possibly some Citaros for 159?
Or possibly 20 more Wrights for 147?
All under HGDEP what.
i love this
I DON'T UNDERSTAND WAT'S IN THE MODERATOR AND THESE PPL
I HATE 34 FROM THE START, when 163 is downgraded, and i saw red when i looked at the cameo htread when 6092 cameoed on 34. that's y i started this.
I HATE 34.
NOT 163
SO STOP SAYING I SUPPORT MY "BELOVED" 34
Originally posted by SBS494J:Agree to the max with both points! Was camping at SGN int to see how the flow like for the above 2 services and I myself is shocked to see how much it has improved. Finally i somehow can depend on 109 without worrying about it's sucky frequency.
Then again, this TS is such a troll. Forever whining about his beloved 34 & 163. If you're an "Adult" just stop whining and wait. 34 is just fine with KUB. It has more standing space than a Citaro. 163, somehow somewhat it will get a citaro. Stop whining like some 3 year old kid.
i noe. i will NEVER want 34 to get citaros.
pls get my meaning, not so gullible like 3 yr old kid

If you don't like the buses on 163, you can always give me, and so many others who appreciate that there's even buses to pick us up.
Oh and because we appreciate the new ones as well, we won't be giving you those also.
You can feedback to SBST to expedite the 2-car SBST LRT coming soon or even harass MP at hawker centre like Chee did, it would make you famous for your cause!
Originally posted by lemon1974:sv34 already full fleet KUB still not enough? seem like every HG service need new buses like that.... and the same issue of Sv163 getting KUB/Citaro/Wright again.... not sian ah? that time HGDEP no citaro/wrights complain... then deploy citaros/wright liao also not happy...
later on if HGDEP deploy citaro on Sv163, they also wont feel happy. will come complain why no wrights have been deployed as perm.. then they will continue to ask for Sv325/112/115/119/159 and so on and so for to be deployed with citaros/wrights etc etc..
really pity those stay in SMRT territory... SMRT buy new buses, here throw there throw.. put it perm on RWS8/531/852? instead of trying to make more services WAB.....
i am very grateful to have a VO3x as a DD perm for 163... LET ALONE A WRIGHT
I oso very grateful if 163/965 HAS A SINGLE CITARO CAMEO ( IF IT'S REAL). they really needed some notice, especially 965. hope its JB hispanos can be refurbished by mar 2012...
i WILL be elated if 163 hv a PERM citaro, of course... so those who wanted 132/153/159 get citaro, i tell u sth: i think they deserved them too.

Alamak.
I'm afraid the chances of that is next to nil now. The only non-WABs I've seen are Striders.

163 got alot PIW meh?
I think Citaro to 103 also better than Citaro on 163.
Even better, 30 citaros on 158.
And DAFs or ELBOs on 965. Your favourite service.

Franky speaking..161 DDs still strong + cold a/c, way better than Wrights.

B-b-b-but... the rounded roof.... the stylish grab poles... the really really cool front windscreen! Oh! OH! AND ALSO THE FACT THAT ITS A NEW BUS! IT MAKES US SOOOO HAPPY THAT WE CAN RIDE ON IT AND OTHERS FEEL SO JEALOUS AND WANT TO COMPLAIN!

new=/=better... Look at the Citaros. Some of us (like me) as bus enthus may adore the Citaros for its fame in Europe, its stylish looks and probably its engine sound, but the public may find it differently... Last time on board 6013A, this uncle somehow kept ranting to me that the Citaros were "disgusting" and impractical, cos Citaro a/c sometimes cmi, while he said KUBs were much better... Cos got strong a/c... in fact, he was astonished when i told him that Citaro won bus of the year europe in 2007 and 2010... (maybe 2011 as well, acc to daimler)

I like the Citaro because 1) It's WAB. Which means added accomodation for PIWs. And easier entry for the elderly and the handicapped. 2) It's got a better fuel efficiency rating. 3) It's (at the very least) stronger than the KUB. 4) I've been to Deutschland before and the Citaro handled really well.
But what really matters to many commuters in Singapore is 1) The strength of the A/C. 2) The amount of seats on the bus. 3) How fast the bus goes. 4) How "swee" the bus looks.
And the reasoning behind either side's conclusions:
1) Because the Citaro is a WAB bus, it definitely has to compromise on seating space to accomodate PIWs. Therefore its only a balance between PIW space and normal passenger space.
2) Who cares much about fuel efficiency rating, other than SBST/SMRT?
3) Even though the Citaro is stronger than the KUB, its not as strong as SMRTs' O405s.
4) The A/C on the Citaro needs work, while (in my opinion) the KUB's A/C is overdone.
5) The SBST Citaro (according to my friends) looks plain "disgusting" with its colour scheme and placements. On the other hand, they agree that the SMRT Citaros look plain sexy. Strangely enough, the KUB rated as the most "sexy" bus of them all, ahead of the OC.
Each side has their own perceptions on the bus and I think its just a matter of which features of each bus they prefer.

that SMRT OC doesnt care at all... i hope that Citaros are deployed on Sv82/85/112/159 rather than Sv163. can throw all the VO3x batch 1 DDs to Sv163 and put Sv163 at 20 mins frequency...

I DID NOT COMPLAIN NO WRIGHTS
For new buses on 163, I only care abt SD replacement, NOT DD REPLACEMENT. I am very content that a VO is actually running on 163. LEAVE ALONE EVEN A TRIDENT. A Wright? I WILL BE SUPER HAPPY. BUT I CAN LIVE WITHOUT WRIGHTS ON 163, unless if 163 started loading in DDs.
So juz give me ONE SINGLE CITARO CAMEO on 163 and the two goddamned flaming MKIII replaced wif WAB (Citaros are best choice) and i will be VERY pleased wif 163 oredi.
svc 163 should get MK4/DDs/MK 3
