  TIB 1164 L might be going SP/811 to replace 1 of the rigids, and then TIB 0975 U will go to 806, and maybe the extra rigid of 811 would go 854.
  
  Suspect:
  
  CSS 0184 S
  
  AM SP AM 853
  
  Been on 853 for goodness don't know when. Suspect replacing TIB 0776 C.
  
  I believe there is something wrong with 851 deployments in SGWiki.
  
  

  
  Service 851 (23 / 25 buses)
  FULL CONTROL: Ang Mo Kio Depot (AMDEP)
  
  TIB473B TIB572Z TIB614L TIB617D TIB737R TIB752X TIB773K TIB780P TIB782J TIB783G TIB798P TIB801M TIB813D
  13 Mercedes-Benz 0405 (7 Hispano OAC / 7 Hispano CAC)
  
  TIB926L TIB1012S TIB1017D TIB1018B
  4 Dennis Lance (1 UK Duple Metsec / 1 UMW Duple Metsec / 2 Volgren)
  
  TIB976S TIB1023K TIB1057M TIB1076H TIB1081S TIB1096A TIB1112L TIB1138M
  8 Mercedes-Benz 0405G (1 Hispano MK2 / 7 Hispano Habit)
  
  2 Bendies will crossover to service 856 to do half trip during weekdays Am peak
  
  Ang Mo Kio 18 AM-PM / 7 Split-Shift
  

  TIB 1076 H is SP, and TIB 1147 L is perm 851 from my observations. Don't know who go put TIB 1147 L as SP. It's always on 851, and TIB 1076 H can be easily seen on 800, 806, 811 and 812. Yet to see it on 851.

  Anyone knows which Express 518 bus is out? No timetable change i believe, fleet size still the same at 8 buses. SBS2888T is back, SBS2622T is still on Express518. As of yesterday, SBS890Z, SBS1896B, SBS2622T and SBS2888T were on Express518.

  They could have been perm for a while only..when i asked driver that was the period they were perm in October
  
  They left in November that time, they hardly on 99
  
  But the markings could be false. Judging on their cameo pattern, they should be SP
  
  9041Z's marking is rather fresh, the AR type
  
  AR/BB hardly update markings
  
  9003J may still be perm as it still 99, tbc only

  Hmm.. let's see...
  
  Recently I saw TIB940U running on 980 during the past few days
  
  So I might suspect:
  
  TIB940U
  [AM 852] -> [AM 980]
  
  (note that it is unconfirmed yet.)

  Its still AM SP. Though its on Service 21 each day, if you observe the slot it does, it's doing a different slot each day.
  
  If im not wrong, its just replacing one of the B9TLs which went MIA or cameoing somewhere else.

  Firstly, its not because of lousy acceleration.In fact, the Service 89 MK3s have one of the best acceleration speeds around. Simply because most of them are doing Service 89e as well during peak hours. Most of them can speed faster along the TPE stretch and Sengkang portion better than their counterparts on other services that utilises that stretch (eg. Service 109 Mk3s).
  
  Secondly, since Service 89/89e has a huge number of Mk3s around, likewise for Service 34 last time, it makes sense to use these Mk3s first to replace the Mk2s that are retiring, rather than dumping the SP Mk4s onto the HG-controlled feeders which are flooded with retiring Mk2s right?
  
  Think about what buses would be used to replace the Scania N113CRBs when the Scania N113CRBs in BNDEP are retiring, and you would get the idea.

  I agree. I've taken 89e once and its performance on the TPE is enough to impress me. I think these 89e Mk3s are specially chosen to be perm on the service. I remembered there was a slight redeployment from other services for this, instead of just taking a random 5 SP Mk3s to put on the service
  
  and er.. there are currently ZERO mk3 perms on 89, only on 89e (but they left already).

  No lah. I quoted the Scanias in BNDEP cuz user SBS3675J closer to BNDEP territory mah. So he can get the idea better.
  Scanias n O405s gone..big case. You would see Mk4s on Services 24 & 53, while Mk3s running around Bedok feeders.
