I don't think they will let the bus rot till it's lay-up. I still feel it can be saved.

for now its laid-up till end of lifespan so we'll see how it goes..
but with only 6 months left to go, I doubt they will save it..
-
6 months there is definitely still a chance.
I can keep quiet if it is being burnt badly, But it is not burnt, Only damaged fronts which is not severe.

Just to clarify that SMB196D's font is the default unformatted "rounded" Mobitec font since day 1, the new format just sees the number spaced out abit moreWoodlands Int/MRT 8 5 6
LECIP on the other hand is the one similar to Hanover, but is reformatted to the rounded font for (probably) better visibility

Oops...but I just have the impression that the new font looks like that of the older LECIP font.

The old LECIP font is actually "blocky" & "chunky".
Anyways, managed to dig out a pic for reference here, the 143's abit too far though but you can probably tell by the font that it's the older type formatting.

Thanks though, but I would still prefer if it was addressed as in LECIP format.

DAMN epic bunch juz now for 89; once every three months
I was at aft pasir ris ctrl at PSR dr 1. I saw an 89 come by and I tot: ok time to board.
Then I saw a trident behind. I tot again: WOW A BUNCH UP! Ok I can take a comfortable trident somemore :)
When the lights turned green, I was preparing to flag down the trident when then, YET ANOTHER trident appeared. By then, I was like :O

I also can remember got 1 time I waiting at a bus stop. Then I sat adjacently to another girl who is probably taking bus 82.
Then a 80 WEG came, then a 87 WEG came, then a 89 strider came, then another 89 trident came...
Until got 1 more strider came. That girl stood up to flag the bus but instead of '82', it was 89! Then she shy shy go back seat. Then 325 came.
All these happened within 9 MINUTES.
You can already imagine the bus making some jam at Pasir Ris. -
