There are people much crazier than me.

Because I always take bus when young. Since cannot afford cars back then, then observe bus lo.

 

But now the interest is getting dry and boring. Luckily still have cars to play with.

Whoa! I first time meet bus otaku!!!!

Unnecessary spending again because of some Bo liao complains. One of my Bo liao friends in the past even suggested to install air con in every bus stop.

If they can improve bus frequencies, people don't even need these fans because waiting times are short and bus stops are less crowded if we control our population well.

Very long liao but i take TIBS bus more than SBS buses last time. 

The SBS O405s came in earlier around 1990/91 so they were scrapped much earlier than SMRT ones according to what you have said.   

 

 

I will continue here as not to go off topic int the train breakdown thread. 

@13177 , these are basically the Mercedes Benz O405 buses bought by SBS in 1990 to 1992.

 

NAC version with Duple Metsec body

 

 

OAC version with Duple Metsec body

 

OAC version with Walter Alexander body

 

There is also a O405 bendy, bodied by Volgren.

I find all the 3 bus models above quite good to ride. It seems like overall mercedes buses are better in comfort as compared with others make. I find scania bus is the worst in comfort as the years go by.

Yes this one. So all will be gone by this year ah, but the bus that i took condition still quite good le and air-con also very cold. I like the bus interior of this bus, no steps within the bus, no narrow aisle area at the back, no high slope. Only one thing not good about this bus is, steps at door entrance and exit, and no area for wheelchair.
