  if DM3500 were to be fitted w/ 3rd brake light, close to 1/2 of them will get it

  aiyooo... really should use Batch 1 Euro IV KUBs.........
  
  but the DM3500s are good when the checkpoints are super congested. a lot of seats...

  dunno how long these 3rd brake light will last? most of the third brake light on Sv160/170 MK3 does not seem to be working..

  SBST should ve some foresight like SMRT, fitted their OC500 with brake lights before they wen on the roads...
  Save cost n reduce bus down time in wksp...

  Hmm, Hinos might replace the current O405s since they have 3rd brake lights.

  12 Hino buses is not enough for 950,950 already have 12 buses as starter,If buses overhaul/breakdown/accident then how?At least need another 6 for spare

  Maybe this is a temporary arrangement for the time being when the DM3500s on service. Maybe SBST will get a new fleet of bus for 160/170 after that???

  Expecting some major reshuffling of DM3500 from other depots to BB as approximately 90 of them to be JB registered.

  Cheers.

  cool! (still no side desto yet haha) speaking of which, i believe the side desto will last longer liao. another random point. > The green men at Singapore/Johore customs will usually bang on the side of the bus body for 170/160 to signal go-ahead to depart. Imagine a day 170/160 recieves K230UBs to replace MK IV DM3500s..?
