    • 2 S143 isn't the record for SBST. Ask SBS9888Y and you'll know whats called "Same services come at the same time". angel.png

      961 can bunch quite frequently, especially when comparing L113CRL and O405. there's a great difference in their top speed...

    • Normally buses which ply along congested roads like Bukit Timah tend to have them coming in the same time. There was once I was on the train at Buona Vista, and the time taken for the train to enter the station, wait and leave, I saw a total of 5-6 74s. Quite common sight.

    • Yesterday around 4pm waited for service 27 at CGA T1, after 10 mins 2 service 27 buses came together (SBS2678H followed by SBS8149D). Some passengers chose to take SBS8149D though SBS2678H arrived first icon_lol.gif
