there were many volgren bendies on 859Originally posted by off_service:Are u sure??
859 started as a full Scania fleet, then full Lance fleet, the Merc fleet.
Bendies only came in as perms after the Habits were introduced. That was in the AMDEP days.
Came 2001 and 859 was transferred to WLDEP.
Fleet was 1001Z, 1046U, 1063U, 1111P then it became 1001Z, 1242U, 1244P, 1246J.
So where are the perm Volgren bendies? I would like to know.
These were cameo. Almost all Volgren Bendies had cameoed on 859 before. But what XiaoTaro said was permers.Originally posted by ZYX2005:there were many volgren bendies on 859
1180--1182 1196 1197 were the ones i spotted

Service 174 if I am not wrong was under Jurong Bus Park in the early1980s with MB OF1417 Hawke and MBOF1413s. It was transferred over to BBDEP somewhere in 1987-1988. Volvo B57s and occasional Albion Vikings were used during this period, and Volvo MK2 NAC WAs were also first introduced on service 174 in 1988. Somewhere in 1993, service 174 was transferred back to Jurong Bus Park (now Soon Lee depot), all the MK2s from service 174 were replaced by MB0405s.Originally posted by ZYX2005:B57 4769 cameo on 174 before
from god knows where depot

What is so rare about SBS9190B on 72?Originally posted by bus555:SBS9190B on service 72?
SBS 0073R on Townlink 293 is sometimes, not all the time, common.Originally posted by bus555:SBS73R on Townlink 291?
TIB905Y on service 67?
SBS591L on feeder 225?
SBS2779A on service 27?
SBS9190B on service 72?
MB0405 buses were also based at BNDEP until 1995 when SBS bought in Volvo MK4 DM (first seen on service 16) and Volvo Striders, after which all the MB0405s were transferred to AMDEP, BRBP or JRBP (now SLDEP).Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:There was Mercedes O405 at BNdepot at one time but the mercedes were transferred to AMK/SL depot before the existance of svc 36 therefore svc 36 never operates cameo or perm O405 mercerdes.
Service 859Originally posted by Airbus330Captain:It's not quite rare for now.
The reason why you don't see volgren bendy on 859 because Volgren bendy is based at Woodlands depot and 859 is now with AMKdepot since 2001. It used to be under Woodlands depot before 2001. Hope this clears things up.
