  Just curious....this thread is very popular judging from the number of entries/pages.....
  
  but do people read them with any real attention, or actually care who spotted which plate number attached to which service on which particular day at what particular time?
  
  or is it popular because it is a convenient outlet that fulfils individual psychological needs to record these numbers due to one's fascination with buses? (i.e. just post, who cares if anyone else pays attention).

  Bus enthusiasts will read them with attention.
  
  It's actually the bus, not the plate number which get attached to a service. The plate number is for identification only.

  yes of course...the plate number gets attached to a bus, which then gets (the bus) attached to a service route.
  but i was referring to the usual format of the posts which is plate number- service number (occasionally depot) e.g:
  
  Acx1688

  SBS1741P sv16

  tat is cos sometimes it is obvious to bus fans which are their perm svcs tat they dun really post the perm svc anymore.
  
  for e.g., 1741P on sv 16 (which is fully controlled by ARBP), but it is actually a spare bus from ARBP. and so on.
  
  when u have understood enough, u will know how to read between these lines.

  actually, i merely made a factual observation (that is, people post plate numbers followed by service route numbers)......while you prefer to read more than what i have explicitly said.
  
  to interpret anything more is just an active imagination.
  
  finally, there are many bus fans here...some will know more than others, but no one knows everything. nothing is permanent, and to presume that things will remain the same day-to-day is fallacious. same goes for specific buses on "perm svcs".

  For example: SBS 9215 P on 23 (BN 10) on Wednesday 27 April
  
  This means that the bus with registration number 9215 is deployed on service 23 on the above-mentioned day. BN 10 means that the bus belongs to BN depot (Bedok North depot) and is usually deployed on service 10, but it was deployed on another service for that day.

  Learning is a life-long process.
  
  Things are ever-changing.
