  chill my dear 9845... the poll will die its natural death....
  
  but to a certain extent, i would say that as a third party, i would look at te bus community in SG with a different light... if you do a search on Google and this is proly the forum we will look at for bus related discussion... and to have mods simply starting such meaningless polls... the quality of discussion from other forumer certainly do not help either.

  I think they can spread their buses among the other services. They just have to make more rectangular side destos thats all...maybe for future useage when the Merc buses retires. Thats my opinion..

  maybe you all may think why sengkang services, or sv158/ 100 dont get NAc.. becos.. well.. they may be "more respected". why else will 82 n 103 gets crappy mk2s while other HG depot services gets mk3 and above? (such as 371, 372, 317,315).

  MKIIs[WA & DM] can speed & run real fast! sv100 dun get NAC coz it's serving the Shenton Way crowd whereas sv158 serves the posh Tanjong Rhu district

  i say DM3500s should stay with sv162 for the Shenton Way crowd, if AMDEP does redistribute, not enough to do around for every bus...

  Wasnt 9615T transferred to AMDEP much after S55 got its own LO3Xs? It was during Oct 04 I believe. BN 87 -> BN 88 -> BN 168 -> BN 30 -> AM 56.

  9615T was initially an SV88 bus. (9613 to 9620 were deployed on SV88 , when it first come out).
  It was transferred at around Oct 04 to SV56, when VSO of SV56 got transferred to BNDEP. LO3Xs were transferred to SV 55 much earlier, when SV133 got its new VSO in 2003..
