Welcome back to sunny Sentosa! ☀️🏝️ And yes, at 1:07, the diesel engine is running at the bus stop since there may not be enough energy stored in the battery (the engine runs to power the generator to produce electricity to charge the battery in this case in order for the bus to travel on EV mode).

It is much more nicer to see different type of buses In Sentosa bus route 123

The great come back of Volvo SD buses on service 123

Actually it’s nice that b5lhs are on 123 and love the vlog style videos haha

I love taking 123 to Sentosa

The B5LH is currently my least favourite bus to ride on and thankfully I rarely ride it unless I take bus 59 from my place to run some errands at Changi Village. And when I do, the bus always feels stuffy and the AC isn't exactly cold so that does not help. The 3 rear seats are so cramped too especially with that big thingy in the rear that takes up the space in the back. Makes me appreciate the Citaro and KUB even more.

Yes, B5LH is a parallel hybrid, whereby the combustion engine and electric drivetrain are two separate components of the bus. Hence, it is possible for the bus to travel only via one mode of drivetrain (and occasionally the engine runs the generator in the electric drivetrain to charge up the batteries when they are low on charge).

It is quite rare to see a B5LH on Service 123, usually it is the Scania K230UB

Citaro is also common on 123

MAN NL323F A22 Is now on service 123!

u still hv ur camcorder?

It's quite weird to see it shift from diesel to electric like that. Usually for me it's on electric mode only when it's stops or when pulling off for 5-10 seconds before diesel turns on for the gears

When did u ride it?

123 is definitely a good service for these B5LH. SBS should take all the B5LH from 272 and put them on this service👍. Hopefully LTA buys more Hybrid buses in the future especially for those long distance routes...and please improve the air con, the B5LH aircon is quite weak😅 Edit: I know Electric buses are supposed to be a little softer and environmental friendly but i have doubts too of b5lh on 123. One: The Animals might not hear the buses approaching and will dash across the road. I know animals arent dumb but still...

damn that's a good point, i think they might turn the electric mode on only when the road has barriers to prevent animals from crossing

Hi L JD I’m back😏

6:15 to 6:20 It is another electric bus that goes from RWS to Beach INT I saw it

@user-oj4xm6by5b

It is a Zhongtong N12. This bus is recently transferred from the NUS Campus Shuttles to Sentosa.

How can 3:20 it can still be in electric mode on that speed? Anything to do with the batteries on top of the right front wheel?

It seems to be "geofenced" to go electric at specific points of the route I think. I'm not very sure

Oh no🫣🫣

The Volvo B5LHs at CDC Victoria that we have are really unreliable and break down quite often CDC dont really take good care of them either most of our older buses are more reliable
