  Is SBS 126Y doing an X-over to 162 or is it SBS 547R? anyone see 126Y on 162? can't believe its 126Y because i ALWAYS SEE 547R doing it. one question:
  
  for 162, the x-over is at where? yck or shenton way.

  there are 2 xovers... so maybe its BOTH 126Y and 547R
  
  Both occur at Yio Chu Kang Terminal.
  
  1 of them which i think its 547R will come out fresh from amdep as 162. Morning split the driver does 24.
  
  The other bus (126Y) will do 1 full trip of 24 before going over to 162 at 1630hrs. Means the bus off service from AMK to YCK

  There is a small space at the front (behind the entrance door) of Scania N113CRBs. Roughly how big is this space? Is this space suitable for big sized check-in luggage?

  There is just enough space for 2 persons to sit. Before the coming of the farecard validators, there used to be a seat there. Ditto for the Volvo B10M Mk-II and the Mercedes O405. Now, it is used for putting the broom and dustpan.

  When people are old/sick, they are most likely to die.
  
  Similarly, for buses, when they are old, they 'die'.

  both i guess... but cannot be 547R. it comes out of shenton way terminal at 4.30 pm. reaches YCK terminal at near 5.55 pm. i think 547R do xover from amdep towards shenton way to start 162's route. but i don't see 126Y going from shenton way to yck. so most likely its going to yck to shenton way then off service before going back to 24.

  547R does the earlier xover slot - the one that comes out from amdep to do 162.
  
  126Y departs Shenton Way just after 6pm. You won't miss it.
