Oh I see, 608 was left in CSS. But I actually don't know about CSS bus fleets in 2005. Some DAFs were idling at GLDEP before they were sold.Originally posted by ^tamago^:thanks but not considering adding in CSS fleet anymore. all DAF's had already been retired, with 10 of them being used in australia now.

Hi all!
I hope to learn lots about buses by reading posts in here... especially those of tamago, tranquilice and all the other regulars around here. You guys are incredible!
I ride 179 / 199 most of the time from boon lay to school (no prizes for guessing which school ) But 179 is more fun, especially in the late morning... they despatch 3-4 buses all at once from the interchange to cope with the vvvvv.long queue, then after dropping all those people off, the buses race back to the interchange.
