  Yeah, coming soon. There will be 13 buses used on total. All other DDs become temporary SPs
  
  Early AM peak:
  8 ADDs xover to 242
  2 VO2x x-over to 255
  but they will stagger the x-overs so that more than 3 buses will be on 179. The x-overs will still be exactly the same timings, just that they will be thrown around different duties.
  
  AM peak:
  all 13 buses back, with additional 1 x-over from 242 and 2 x-overs from 255
  
  AM off peak:
  5 buses total - the 3A/P shift buses & the 2 E shift VO2x
  
  Early PM peak:
  10 buses total - the other 3 are x-over to 242
  
  PM peak:
  9 buses total - one more goes to 242 from around 18:00
  
  PM off peak:
  3 A/P buses
  

  How long does this Special1 timetable last? I hate this period -- especially when waiting for buses; it takes longer than usual and the VO2x are simply not recommended for scorching hot afternoons.
  
  So, 242 passengers will always have the luxury of the many DDs during this period. And daily 179 passengers like me will have non air-con VO2x to 'enjoy' in the afternoons.
  
  Any idea what are the 3 A/P buses for this year's Special1 timetable? I remember last year's: 3858Z, 3905X and 9088P (correct me if I'm wrong). And 9056G was temp 242 perm last year. I guess 373A will be one of the A/P shift ones this year? Thanks!
  
  Sorry, this's a little off-topic, though.

  It'll last till June school Holidays, when it will use the Holiday1 timetable. Then it will revert back to Special1 timetable untill start of August.
  
  Yeah, 373A should be one of the A/P shifts. Dunno what the other 2 buses will be since now they have VO3x also.
  
  9056G was just another x-over during the school holidays, but it starts its PM split shift very early, around 2pm+
  
  EDIT: BTW, here's last years x-over list for Special timetable (May - Jul 2006)

  Are you refering to SBS 9831K? I guess it's your typo error because some can easily mistype the '1' as '6'.
