Singapore Bus Fayre

[Stuharris 6360]

Singapore is having a bus carnival today at which their new buses and new fleet colour were unveiled. For those who may not be aware Singapore is moving gradually to a contracted model for their bus network with new area contracts so far awarded to Tower Transit and Go Ahead.


The new fleet colour, voted for by the public, will be green and their new double deckers will have three doors and 2 staircases.

Interesting both MAN and Alexander Dennis are making serious headway.

I thought over that side it'd all be the usual unknown brand crap

That's quite a bright and eyecatching livery - quite like it tbh. Surprising as LS said that its all UK-familiar companies.

'Unknown brand crap' (whatever that means) like Leyland, Volvo, Mercedes, Scania and Wrightbus, you mean?

Wasn't the Alexander PS body so named as the 'S' orignally stood for Singapore?  And then went on to sell gawd knows how many in the UK.  Can still remember the day Mainline introduced them onto the 93, looking out of the landing window to see new yellow buses...
