Redeployments

Yar lor, I still prefer the LO3x. Today took that bus to NTU, very slow. If tomorrow deploy on morning shift sure cause congestion.Originally posted by stooper:Today, yeah 9641S on 179, but I think it's only today.
It lacked a 179 side desto. It had a 97A side desto instead. So I believe it will be back to 97 tommorow. But they might be other VO3x cameos...
179: 9641S (ex BB 198 ) <-- bus was very sluggish, even when BC continously downshifted

I dont think that is really the reason. I strongly believe the Volvo buses in SLdepot is so get the drivers to familize with the Volvo bus system as some of the DD bus services like 97 and 174 operate the B9TL buses. I hope this changes are permanent. Nice to see the likes of 179 getting cameo VO 3 axles. Personally , I prefer the Mark IV and VO 3 axles over the LO/mercedes . We should see what happen once the whole event is over.Originally posted by Brother W. Sunikmaniam:the reason they deploy volvo mkivs & vo3xbatch 2/3 are they are better looking in terms of bodwerk compared to LOs/Mercs bodies which got bolt-on every partition.appearances is more important than performances.
Lots of changes this week , B9TL on svc 12 ! Took 7338 , engine died along china town area, took 5-10 minutes to get the engine revived ! But I am sure the bus will settle down once after some time. -
Your strong belief is about to be shattered, Charles. The Volvos are in SLBP for the IMF meetings and NOTHING else. You don't need to read any further about it or think too much about Volvos in SLBP. SLBP have already had Volvos since 1998 when the DM3500 Mk IVs were launched.Originally posted by K800i:I dont think that is really the reason.

Seriously, I see no reason why Jurong should not get Volvo ADDs, Scanias should be based in the East and non-PA Lances in AMKM.
And where is the proof that Charles=k800i? -
knn, comment also cannot.

Can, can comment. If you throw up a nonsensical comment then prepare to get shot lor, it's as easy as that.Originally posted by ^tamago^:knn, comment also cannot. -
Whose Charles ? Do I know you ? I am not Charles, what makes you think I am him whoever you are calling.Originally posted by SBS9818A:Your strong belief is about to be shattered, Charles.

I have seen your previous posts, I dont take any of your comments seriously. So there is nothing for me to agree or disagree with you.
I stick to my comments.
What happen after the big meeting , we will find out . As for now, enjoy the deployments whether you like them or not. -

My goodness, your attempts at trying to mask your true identity are abysmal at best. Nearly had me falling off the chair in laughter.

K800i, you are so funny. Tatz not a compliment.
Yea, who iz tis charles? Some daydreamer irritant? Wat do u tink? Since if u r not him, call him some daydreamin irritatant then. -
FYI, my (parents') house is near the Svc 33 bus stop on Dover Rd. I felt it was good news when Svc 33 received perm Scanias after being moved over to BNDEP in 2004.Originally posted by K800i:Whose Charles ? Do I know you ? I am not Charles, what makes you think I am him whoever you are calling.

Managed to pong 36Z and 47S in one day last December when I visited the new NLB @ Bugis. -
i believe with the introduction of B9Tls to sv12, sv196, some existing buses are being trf to be their respective depots to be SP, these buses are MIA from their regular timings and not sighted for quite a while already.

From what was posted at another forum, 9120 sighted on 31.Originally posted by Acx1688:Nope seems that SBS9120D is now at BNDEP as SP -
But according to sgwiki, this bus was a spare at BRAM..Originally posted by iveco:From what was posted at another forum, 9120 sighted on 31. -
This was a false info as someone said it appeared on 30.Originally posted by Acx1688:Nope seems that SBS9120D is now at BNDEP as SP -
Yes, so if it appeared on 30, it would be either SL or BN and not BR. Since it appeared on 31, it's BNOriginally posted by SBS 233 X:This was a false info as someone said it appeared on 30. -
Svc 31 is partial BRAM. Some peeps say 9120 replaced 9846 a few days ago.Originally posted by stooper:Yes, so if it appeared on 30, it would be either SL or BN and not BR. Since it appeared on 31, it's BN -
SBS9208K
(HG 80) to (HG SP) -
Yes, it could be replacing 9846T, but remember, it is possible for BN to add one more bus to replace a BRAM bus. Sometimes 168 works that way too.Originally posted by iveco:Svc 31 is partial BRAM. Some peeps say 9120 replaced 9846 a few days ago.
The only way to verify is to look at the timesheet. -
9349L just got its new Marks&Spencer ad, you expect it to turn SP? Btw, this bus BB 196.Originally posted by Acx1688:i believe with the introduction of B9Tls to sv12, sv196, some existing buses are being trf to be their respective depots to be SP, these buses are MIA from their regular timings and not sighted for quite a while already.

If 9805 and 9816 are now perm CityBuzz services, which buses are they replacing, or what services are they on doing the crossover?
