  History Of Double Deckers:

  The double-deckers first began in 1977 when 20 LA were shipped in to Singapore. Some of them were bodied by BACO and they were put on route 86, a semi express route connecting from Tampines to the CBD area.

  35 Years of Leyland Double deck history, 35 years of double deck history.

  We have the new Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 on the roads and we'll be seeing another 550 of them by 2015.

  You should consider appointing yourself as admin though, or let BusAnalyzer be the admin once he posts here...

  Woohoo... DD fan page... I thought of creating this multiple times but then I thought I will get bashed up by all SMRT / bendy fans because I already have two threads

  - DDs for SMRT

  - Optimum Utilization of DDs

  But I am glad you created a DD fan page.

  VO3x

  Dennis Trident

  Volgren B10TL

  Wright B9TL 

  LO3X- The speed and Leyland History!

  VO3X- I only like SBS9222T and its yellow handgrips!

  Dennis Trident- A HK-style bus in SG(doors closing with chinese characters)!

  B10TL- The design, especially the yellow poles together with the purple handgrips and the nice doors closing chime!

  WEG2- The exterior design and the interior design. The Batch 2Bs have to be driven faster though... My favourite is Batch 2A due to voith+adequate speed:D! Sadly I've only taken one Batch 2A WEG2, on service 51 at Queensway towards Jurong East...

  Batch 2B needs tremendous / thorough training to be driven perfectly like those on 166(except 3081Y)

  Wright B9TL 

  LO3X, their speed, like no limit.

  VO3X, their unique refurbished ducts 

  Tridents, good HP and good aircon, just average

  B10TL - Cold Aircon! Nice vibration! Soundless on upper deck! Moves smoothly! 9808D got cheese balls smell when permed 76 on upper deck!

  B9TL WEG2 - Fast, cold aircon, batch 2B does not tick more frequently
