  Maybe, like what i posted on SMB143G at Bus Observation page, the engine grinds at a very high rev and interior is super dirty and dusty...

  It seems like all the way from 6670C-6673U, 6675P-6686H were all posted to east side though, Ever since 6666R-6668K were posted to my side (SL) there seems to be little intake to the west side.

  Adblue problems.

  If they never get this issue fixed they can forget about getting the new Citaros.

  427K-441T will be going off by year end.

  It would take at least 17 months for all 300+ buses to go next year, So if AMDEP doesn't want to take in MAN next year they will lose out.

  No wonder from early last year they lost quite an amount of MB buses last year quarter by quarter.

  For what so many citaros posted to the west side? The citaros are the replacements for the volvo b10m IV.SLBP got so many volvo b10m IV? So far SLBP got a total of 10 volvo b10m IV,so does it need to take in so many citaros?

  Today on Sv 53. Not sure if it's 1st day out or what, Wiki was unedited before this. But rims are pretty bright for a Citaro.

  The 100% low floor Euro V bus ad for SMB136C's left side is not deteriorating as badly as the right side - with the ad only peeling off slightly at the second and third window.

  Amdep got the most no of citaros? U mean 66** series? Overall hgdep got the most no of citaros. N why AMDEP take in so many new buses is because of fleet add requirement. Dun forget sbst n smrt are buying 250 new buses for adfitional fleet. N if AMDEP dun take in new buses how they are going to do fleet add to 72b 261 269 n other services. n how they are going to deploy more DDs on service 72/76/25/70 etc etc. Sv86/55/58/59/76/72/25/125/410 etc all got fleet upgrade. Where they going to get the DD from?

  But from what I see they are kicking out KUBs and Batch 1 Citaros instead:
  - 6670C/6671A rpl 8749Y/8765A
  - 6678G rpl 6036J
  - 6680Z rpl 8751P

  The KUBs can transfer to HGDEP which are lack of spare WAB buses and also to BRBP which is also lack number of spare buses
