Which buses switched from sbs to tibs?
-
way back when 5 got withdrawn by TIBS. i sent a complain to TIBS. the reply was 970. around the same time i suggested to TIBS to integrate 345 and 344 to form 920. they did so.Originally posted by muziq bus:Sorry hor, if u really open up your eyes... 5 is ...n didn you read...slight amendment along Hillview/Bt Timah area... n fyi...
service 5 did ply along 6th avenue and queensway...
like i said....TIBS realised passengers needed service 5... so it was re-intro within 6 months of absent...
The only change to the route is from Hillview Ave to JLN ANAK BUKIT..
u don't believe me? This topic was discussed before last year...
period. 970 is the reintro of 5 with slight enhancement...
n i repeat my point...
5 was not that hot.... 970 was reintro to end at shenton to increase connectivity...
so thats the story of me with 970 and 920. my darlings.
lol

970 is the remodification of 5...after the withdrawal of 5 -
But I thought there was an even earlier route using the number 180 too? SGWiki lists it as "Svc originally plied from Marsiling Ter to WTC Ter.", so there must be some earlier incarnation of this route.Originally posted by ^tamago^:180 was renumbered from 951 and shorterned to start from bt panjang when woodlands mrt extension opened.
then, 345 is a tibs-initiated service. -
"180" is the number that Tibs reused again in 1996.Originally posted by eX.A.K.R.:But I thought there was an even earlier route using the number 180 too? SGWiki lists it as "Svc originally plied from Marsiling Ter to WTC Ter.", so there must be some earlier incarnation of this route.
"857", "900", "901", "902" and "950" were also reused by Tibs too.
"59", "160", "161", "179", "181", "182" and "372" were reused by SBST. -
857 is originally from Admiralty Rd West to somewhere (forgot oredi) and was withdrawn in 1996. A year later TIBS reuse as Yishun to Suntec till now.Originally posted by TIB1018B:"180" is the number that Tibs reused again in 1996.

857 was from Yishun to Adm Rd West, a fully aircon service using 2 Nissan UD buses. It was later merged with service 169 and withdrawn in 1996.Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:857 is originally from Admiralty Rd West to somewhere (forgot oredi) and was withdrawn in 1996.

Tibs reused this number as a new service to ply between Yishun and Suntec City in 2001. -
i think the old 857 ever use the Hino NAC buses....Originally posted by TIB1018B:857 was from Yishun to Adm Rd West, a fully aircon service using 2 Nissan UD buses. It was later merged with service 169 and withdrawn in 1996.

was 188 withdrawn and re-introduced and then handed over to TIBS? I have some recollections of it being a SBS service..

of these 8 services which SBS took over from tibs, thats 82, 103, 163, 820, 821, 864, 865, 866
6 services are originally SBS's before
all 8 services routes are either amended heavily/ merged/ withdrawn. non has their original routes.
82/ 103: cut to Serangoon
163: Sengkang
820/ 821: merge with 103
864: merge with 80
865: withdrawn
866: renumbered/ amended -

82 same.Originally posted by muziq bus:6? 5 what.... 864 and 865 n 866 i tot were TIBS initiated..? n 860 was 865 right? well, if u didnt wan BB n CCK to be under SMRT, then SKG, PGL and NEL would be.... imagine that
103 same.
163 same.
820 and 821 were 214E and 214W. route wise, same.
864 is like former 84 but extended to sengkang and not going to NBR. used to one of the ways to get to suntec inner roads from east side. later 84 and 864 merged to form 80.
865 a.k.a. ex-860. 860's role is akin to current 119.
866 is ex-59, current 86. enough said.
only 864 and 865 hence are originally original Tibs services.
but 866 was a clever idea to build on 59. revived the seemingly dead route. -
oh ya...haha..no wonder~ so only 864 n 865 r da originalzOriginally posted by SBS9889U:866 was the former 59, after being renamed and extended. -
Is svc 5 still in use?
Last time i used to see it at the geylang terminal -
no. was withdrawn along with the introduction of bt panjang LRT, but re-introduced later as 970 with an amended route, but the backbone is pretty much the same.Originally posted by MingFreeman:Is svc 5 still in use?

You mean that TIBS did not take over the old route 345, and introduced one more route of their own, which was later also withdrawn before switching over to the current 920s system? Was route 920 also introcuded with the introduction of the 920s system?
Service 345: Introduced in Jan 1997 as a temporary service. Feeder service between Bukit Panjang terminal and Jelapang Rd. No route change. Withdrawn in Dec 1999.
TIBS did not take over 345, it just started its own route. It was withdrawn since the commencement of the LRT in late 1999.
Service 920: Introduced on Sunday 28 Mar 2000. Feeder service between Bukit Panjang interchange and Bangkit Rd. On Sunday 29 May 2005, amended to ply Senja Rd and Senja Link.
(Information by tranquilice)
Sv 920 was introduced in 28/3/2000 and renumebred 343 into 921 on the same day itself. -
don't think so that NAC Hinos were on 857. Only TIB311K-TIB317U used to ply on 857.Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:i think the old 857 ever use the Hino NAC buses.... -

affirmative. it was a fully air-con bus service somemore, though it's using nissan oac's.Originally posted by Apex-LW'21:don't think so that NAC Hinos were on 857. Only TIB311K-TIB317U used to ply on 857. -
History of service number 188:-Originally posted by Volvo Olympian:188 use to ply between Jurong Int to Jurong West area in 1980's
In 1980s, this SBS service ply from Ulu Pandan to Shenton Way. Soon Chow models were used. I used to take this bus with my mum when i was young . Withdrawn in 1986-1987.
In 1989, service 188 was introduced by SBS to ply along Jurong West area. Withdrawn again in 1990-1991.
In March 1999, service 188 was introduced to ply between CCK and WTC. Service 10 was shortened to Kent Ridge from Clementi on tat day. Service 188 by then was a PAC service by SBS, MB0405s and LO2x were used.
Service 188 was then transferred to Tibs in Dec 1999. Majority Hino Volgrens and 2 or 3 NAC MB0405s were used by Tibs upon it's handover. Till then, Tibs had replaced the whole fleet of service 188 with MB0405, MB0405G and Habits.
Seems tat service 188 was improved by Tibs upon its handover...SBS had more NAC buses on service 188 than Tibs had

To add-on: Sv 188 used to terminate at Jurong Bus Park after the closure of old Jurong Int in 1990.Originally posted by TIB1018B:History of service number 188:-
