  980 these days is damn freaking fail to the max. WAB already and yet still many buses are non WAB. And yesterday evening peak had 5-6 buses, all non WAB! I notice 167 is much better. These 2 days keep seeing 1010Y on 980, really what the hell. And the no of Citaros seems to have reduced. Really SMRT should do something about 980.

  Anyone saw 139U 140P lately? It had been MIA for months...

  Only see MAN,OC and 498E+ 499C everytime i passed by SBW and Bugis area

  Heard about that until now still laid up. The circuit must be really 'crispy' or something

  Quite a late thing but:
  
  SMB3035R(KJDEP 982E) is also joint with KJDEP 300, making it the first MAN A22 to be semi-perm on 300 before going on 982E.
  
  I feel happier now...

  Anyone here got spot the rear fan attachment for wright BSEP batch 2, which is 3330 to 3339 (aka Batch 3 for non-BSEP) ?

  so far i only spotted 3337 of AM 25 with the fan. 3333 of BB 99 no fan BUT got the shape mark of the fan, waiting for it to remove i guess (if u look closely at the bus though initially i thought got nothing on it)

  3334 also have fan mark, either they already installed but covered it up or haven't install yet.

  I just saw 157S today and it seems to be the only Citaro... I truly agree with the fact SMRT is taking 980 for granted. And in fact 980 is the worst WAB service that I have ever come across. If SMRT continue to deploy all these shits everyday 980 should not have go WAB in the first place. So far I dun see any problems with other WAB services like 75 77 167 171 700 851 857 966 970 985 etc, and they have a much more stable WAB fleet.

  Just wondering when will AMDEP start taking in MAN A22s again? It is really pointless for WLDEP to take in all the MANs and not distributing everywhere among depots. Is very unfair. And also looking forward to see all the remaining lances go off.

  You think WLDEP would love to take in so many MANs meh?  Where is it unfair??
