  last time on 151 where MK2s were plenty, DM CAC feat WA NAC side by side, the NAC one got a lead? =x but to me both still go fast easily as compared to DDs.

  Anyway, its so sad to see all single deck NAC buses going off by the end of this yr.. if i never take those NAC Scanias before it gets withdrawn, I would have regretted taking them..

  But, really farewell to these old folks that served us all the time.
  
  Maybe we can go for a very last ride on Scanias NAC before they become scraps of metals?

  I personally like all those NAC buses in general; from Leyland DD NAC, MB O405 NACs, Volvo Mk II NAC to the current Scania single deck NAC. All of them have plied over thousands of kilometres, driven by hundreds of BCs and most importantly served thousands of Singaporeans.
  
  It's pretty sad to see them go and my personal salutes to them for serving the public all these years. Even if they were gone, our memories for them will last for eternity.

  bus captains all scared to go fast anymore. Not much natural wind for the passengers. But aircon also kns when the bus is very packed. Anyway, i have given up on buses and mrts long ago.
