Nostalgic feeling! Loved the Good Old B10M Mk III. Love it

[@CreightonRabs]

We had the US version of the B10M buses as articulated (bendy) models in the US with the same engine and transmission powertrain in Philadelphia well into the 1990s before they were retired. SEPTA (Philadelphia), NJ Transit and SamTrans (San Mateo County, California) were the only agencies to use the B10M bendys, while the Rhode Island Public Transit Authority where the only US agency to purchase the B10M 40-foot model (one of the RIPTA buses ended up in Philadelphia as coach 8590).

I will always remember the ride quality. Yes they were a bit noisy, the engine being in the middle, the B10B were fantastic though.

[@glitchFan2428]

I've got a video of a B10B coming soon 😁

nostalgia hitting real hard!

Heh yes, it was so good

That classic B10m Roar 👍🏻

Wow the b10m has reborn

[@ljd2004]

Good news Guys! According to land transport guru, 20 units of the retired Scania K230UBS Euro 4 are currently reserved for RVS Global! So its kinda similiar to back then when the O405s were shipped to bangkok for preservation/operations. Well i think its up to RVS Global if they want the bus and how many they want. If some they dont want, those might be send for scrap immediately. Btw these retired buses are the ones from 1 Jan 2022 and have yet to be de registered

[@glitchFan2428]

Could be sent to somewhere as a fleet, better than being scrapped

[@ljd2004]

@@glitchFan2428 Yeah could finally something good sbst did...although rvs global requested though

[@glitchFan2428]

SBST are more likely to sell to a company as a fleet to be reused rather than to a private individual for preservation

Now you do!

[@TIB1106EProductions]

Rly wanna see when a b10m gets rebuilt as a replica

[@glitchFan2428]

Not sure if that's possible

[@user-oj4xm6by5b]

Hopefully it will happen. Who knows someone who is crazy enough to buy a bus chassis (like Volvo B8RLE chassis) and build a B10M on it? (From the bodywork to the interior)

[@user-oj4xm6by5b]

Sadly it will not have the signature B10M sounds.

[@TIB1106EProductions]

@@user-oj4xm6by5b i am asking for the whole bus to be made as much as close to the original b10ms not slapping on smth and faking it. Its gg be expensive if possible

[@user-oj4xm6by5b]

@@TIB1106EProductions That will need a ton of engineering knowledge (and also stripping up a B10M), and will not be allowed in Singapore since the bus replica will not meet the minimum Euro V standards.

Same chassis right?

Why Singapore don’t want to celebrate the old bus.

There is lots of interest and demand for bus preservation but the government refuses to listen to the people
