*SG 💔 BUS* R.I.P. Volvo B9TL CDGE. You had always been one of our best childhood friends and memories. We had a fun time laughing, crying and riding with you, with many stories to tell and adventures to experience. Now, you are the one who is however scrapped unceremoniously, without any fanfare but just fading away into darkness...... Farewell. You went too soon......😭😭😭
Instead of scrapping the whole bus which is relatively new it would be much better for these buses to go back to the makers that made them so that they are remanaufactured & fitted with new eco friendly engines which would be much better for the enviorment as scrapping itself causes pollution & the bus industry needs to change so that all end of life buses go back to the makers that made them where they are reconditioned & remanufactured into new buses in clean & sterile conditions so that scenes like this are consigned to history which should be a legal requirement for all vehicles as why destroy them when they can be made into new by remanufacturing?
Thank you for your service, we will remember you CDGE now go back to heaven, while the memories of you on bus service 28 will be with me forever, even when you were noisy
I was sitting this type of bus for 51 and 72 during childhood, also bus service 50 80, 88, 147, 196 198, so sad this bus has to go, only remaining 179 units still on the road until Sept 2023.
When im coming back sg definitely rushing to buy the handgrips before sold out like how i managed to take the 2nd last VSO volgren handgrip and my friend took the last one
Another scrapping video? Hell yeah! Also it is sad that these buses are scrapped so early, looks like these are the first green buses to be scrapped. Feels like yesterday the VSO were scrapped..
RIP.. Actually the lifespan is still relatively short, coz 2006-2021 is about 15 years, while the max lifespan of a public bus in sg is 17 years b4 it Is unregistered (I think)… so shouldn’t have scrapped this so soon…
Just looking back at this video, i am starting to think these CDGES will be scrapped by early 2022 and not 2023 whereas their lifespan ends. Based on the number of cdges being de registered at this point of time. Feel half will be gone and send for scrap in jan 2022 while the rest probs aug/sept 2022. After that, Scania k230ub euro 4 is next. I didnt expect that they will go so soon. They might be probs one of the few unrefurbished buses or the only one so far that would be scrapped without refurb. But then again most scanias are always in bad condition, seems like sbs/lta barely pays any attention to these older buses similar to VSOs, CDGES..etc
I came to singapore for the B10TLs, and leaving in the memories of CDGE B9TLs. To me, they are a improved version of Enviro500 bodied B9TLs in HK. Thanks for the great memories given by them in the weekend I stayed at Singapore.
Such a pity, modern looking buses and I kind of like how the interior is designed. There is sufficient headroom for tall people like me and not to forget the comfortable seats with thicker cushions.
Are there any of the B9TL remaining? I thought I found some 2007/8 examples in service near where I live but it turned out they are apparently B7TL so I am not going to bother trying to get them as I have been on loads of B7TL before.
In Singapore at least there are B9TLs still in service. There aren't any B7TLs though so I'm assuming you aren't from Singapore and unfortunately my knowledge is quite limited outside of Singapore.
This bus belongs to the lst batch of double decker buses in Singapore which can transport wheelchair-bound passengers on them. The downfall of this bus is its noisy engine sound on the outside when it runs on the road. Other than this bad aspect, I find that this bus is okay.
I'm also wondering this! My guess is that because there is a surplus of brand new buses, it would make more economical sense to dispose of the older buses (even though they were just refurbished). Still, I feel that it is all very poorly planned.
It's sad to see how the eds just got destroyed like that. Of course, it's sad to see these Euro IIIs go, but it's time we move on to more environmentally friendly buses. Farewell.
Rest In Peace B9TL CDGE 2006-2023... Thank you for serving some services.... I have rode it with 10, 14, 30, 50, 51, 72A/B, 147, 181, 196 and 198.... for 2006-Now
This bus body belongs to PSV though assembled by CDGE(no real engineering content from them, only a assembler.) The weakest link from the early 1980 DD as seen by the tearing up of the roof during the scrapping process. In fact during the warranty period, the vibration cause all the glass panels to be resealed, because of rain ingress. A far cry from the recent Wrightbus and Gemilang body on the Man A95.
