  But still means 168 is sort of like 2 WABs above the min 60% quota, no? Correct me if i'm wrong, cause i'm quite confused with 168's fleet now. I only know that 3 of the 168 Wrights has been on 17 for most part of this week so far.

  Woah, I was spot on! i guess the 168 SL really hates the sluggish of the acceleration from the Voith B9TLs. Instead of 6 initially, now left 3008K & 3009H only.  
  7570B is still on 17 today though. 

  And do you know 3029A & 3006R is replacing which of the Wrights and their duties? I know 3031S is replacing 7570B after this entire week on 7570B's timing (but I forgot its original duty, should be 5A?).

  Service 17's elderly passengers seem to like the idea of having full low floor and more elderly seats when I took 3006R on 17 just now.  But then, the Voith-ed Wrights' 1st gear acceleration is really lethargic, there's like a 2 second delay between the BC stepping the accelerator and the bus actually moving. Much like a VO3x, but I can say even worse than some of the CDGE Voith B9s.

  But I can't complain much, 17 gets practically Wrights that are a year younger then those that left.

  There's an abundance of Citaros in BNDEP, just in case you know, to join 5007A.

  168's addition of older Wrights I believe is the SL's decision to intake them due to the faster-accelerating gearbox. Because of the ZF gearbox the older Wrights have, compared to the more lethargic Voiths of the 3000 series.
