TIB548U (KJDEP 188) - 'DOOR CLOSING' sign spoilt, only one bulb flickering when activated, showing 'ING' faintly... But, engine sound insulation very good, can barely hear the diesel grunt from the engine...
TIB807Y (KJDEP 190) - 'DOOR CLOSING' sign and chime both spoilt... Some rear aircon ducts are spraypainted, not stickered...
-
307 missing one bus yesterday and today. S101 was not out (738M) and S201 (740E)has to adjust timing. For both days, S201's timing was adjusted to 2 mins later for the 8.07am trip (at opp cck mrt stop). The timing that BC was given was 8.09am instead. Bus was more crowded than usual.

yar..and i heard the situation worsen coz one 190 bus broke down (1216X). So the already late bus (together with 604R), have to tank all the pax. 604R took all the pax at chinatown, city hall area while 1103M took all the pax at orchard area. 1103M just sped thru chinatown and city hall and the expressway. -

I guess the splits are SMB330H - SMB335U and SMB3001M. SMB3071K is 858AP90... -
RU3719S (Sentosa) - new leather air-con ducts and handgrips, with new screws. Looks like it was refurbished with RU3722G... Rear door warning stickers still retained!
*SBS2679E (HGDEP 151/151e) 11 old uncle BC yesterday quite friendly!
Anyway, inside got 151e poster!*TIB533L (WLDEP SP) yesterday 961AM07 BC chiong like mad, especially at Boon Keng Road! Because he did so many kickdowns, the engine sounds were really musical! When the bus went over the road bumps, the whole interior was also literally rattling! Anyway, the 'DOOR CLOSING' chime very soft, cannot be heard easily at all... Sounds like TIB542K (which sounds like TIB733B and is my favourite Batch 1 O405), but got awesome hub reduction sound. Reminds me of TIB541M... Shiok bus!

TIB795Y interior rego use cut out numbers instead of the usual white numbers with black background.

PA4136X (Sentosa Bus 1) - New air-con ducts with holes previously used for the adjustable vents quite visible... Rear door Mechanism box got black tape-like stuff around it, to insulate the mechanism(?). Also, one of the few (if not the only) B7RLEs with yellow interior front, makes it look older, but it suits well with the 'BUS STOPPING' sign!
TIB811J (AMDEP SP) - middle 'BUS STOPPING' sign removed like TIB779U... Front 'BUS STOPPING' like TIB783G, only shows 'STOPPING'
. Rear door mechanism noisy when doors open... However, air-con and engine sound quite nice! (BTW, I really like its blue Malaysia Tourism 2014 ad on the outside and inside of the bus!) -

No la, is green 'BUS STOPPING' de, not SBS red 'STOPPING', unless is like SMRT Citaro 'BUS STOPPING' on the PIS... Citaros very different from the O405s, but from same chassis manufacturer...
