Nostalgia on Buses
-
Svc 240 only ply Jln Ahmad Ibrahim(AYE slip rd), although it is opp JRBP but is about 11 lanes away from Jln Ahmad Ibrahim, blocked by vehicles & trees along AYE so you can't really see the buses in JRBP.Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:You would also see those buses @ JRBP while you are on Sv 240 as it also passes by the former JRBP.
How you can see the LAs & LO2xs in JRBP from such a distance during daytime & late at night when the lights in JRBP were not even switched on...
If you don't know, please don't anyhow say you know...
Cheers. -
when the LA and LO2x gang was about to retire, all of them parked at the empty "field" next to JR depot. the PIE flyover can see it very clearly.
but among the LA and LO2x, was MB O305 among the buses parked at the big field?
all i can say is, when i saw them parked there, they were waiting to be scrapped/ exported, so one day when crossing the flyover, they wee all gone! amazing -
MB O305 were never parked at the big field of JRBP, instead some of them were being transferred to HGDEP.Originally posted by 105090:but among the LA and LO2x, was MB O305 among the buses parked at the big field? -
i have a question, where did all the buses that have been scrapped goes to?

So u sure that u saw that? Still remember so clearly what you saw when u r a 9 year old kid in 1999?Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:For me, I saw one DD with the same sticker on the day that SBS took over 864, 865, 866 from TIBS.

the buses travells to Defu, to be scrapped. so after they vhad been scrapped, they are just pieces of scrap metal, lying in the scrapyard, and preparing t be exported for recycling purposes.Originally posted by XTransbus:i have a question, where did all the buses that have been scrapped goes to?
these metals can fetch $200/ tonne -

He forgot the route svc 240 uses has AYE(about 11 lanes away from svc 240 route) in between svc 240 route & JRBP and he can see the LAs & LO2xs from such a far distance during the day & late at night & the lights in JRBP were switched off...Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:You would also see those buses @ JRBP while you are on Sv 240 as it also passes by the former JRBP. -
Regarding about the SBS taking over Sengkang from TIBS... free rides were given to Sengkang residents too, if I'm not mistaken.

Like only you know...

A lame one(learnt from Apex):
Parts of Sengkang & Toa Payoh Temp Int can still been seen.
Sheltered walkway from Sengkang Rd East to Sengkang Int is part of Sengkang Temp Int.
Those structures found near the PIE side in Toa Payoh Town Gdn is part of Toa Payoh Temp Int. -
