  I remember seing a 103w WA merz at S'goon 2-3 years ago

  That was when 103 was under AMDEP together with the other serangoon services except 81. Service 101 also got use Scania before too.
  
  103/103W Buses mainly use MK2's when it is under HGDEP.

  SBS9888Y was first on 87 , then follow by 502 and 80. This bus was HGDEP until it was transfer to BRAM together with SBS9800A and from there it was perm on 154 , and do cameos at times.

  I saw SBS 1958 G in ARBP without any destos a few weeks ago. However, SGWiki claims that it is BBDEP 32. What depot is it in, BBDEP or ARBP ?

  Is Sv 273 (Bukit Merah - Henderson Rd) under ARBP and BBDEP ?

  When SBS 34 D comes into Kent Ridge Int at around 6.20 [aprox only], It is a 33 full desto. Then, driver changes destos into full 7 destos, front,side [ 7 square board displaying Bedok ] and heads for Clementi Int. I saw this twice. Is it a crossover from Sv 33. As I remember last time Sv 7 having a perm Scania at the beginning of the year, SBS 3700 U , x-over from 33. Sgwiki stated it leaves Clementi Int at 7pm. But now got no scania left. Is it perm or just so happen is cameo ? Cos i took i once on another ocassion.

  along with 9328Y, 9536M, 9625P for 154... 154-9670H did not transfer to 154 and that was sad... it was redployed to 165... 9205T, 9231S & 9248U from HGDEP too transfered to 60... BRAM did not want to use volvo SDs for dunno what reason so it used back the serangoon MB SDs... some SDs like 202K, 301H & 3873D were extra and deployed to slbp as hgdep did not want them...

  i think this sentence is a little extreme , the right meaning for Non User Lay or lay up means that a vehicle has broken down (eg. spoilt engine) & it will need to take a long time to be repaired , while the vehicle is undergoing repair , the owner might lay up that vehicle so that no road tax is paid for the days while the vehicle is undergoing reparing works. Thats what i know for lay up as my dad's company has a bus on lay up , PA920A which the engine has broken down and needs a replacement of engine.
