Past Deployments of Mark IIs
-
Anyone knows what the past services the MK2s have done way back in 1989 to 1999?
-
1734, 1766 did 315 back in 1999, i think
I rmb them saying that it goes to 317 then 261 and all that. -
A good number of them were perm on 170. Also, on 190. (190 always get new bus from SBS, Mk2, Merc, Mk3, LOs, VOs).
-
1st Volvo MK2 WAs were introduced on service 174 in 1988.
Volvo MK2 DMs were also introduced on services 82, 83 and 84.
Subsequent Volvo MK2s were deployed on services 1 (withdrawn), 62, 75, 105, 189, 190, 390 etc. They were new buses which was bought in 1988-1989 to replace mainly the Albion Viking Soon Chow buses. -
To add on...Clementi, Bt Merah, Bt Batok, CCK, Hougang and Eunos feeders start to have Volvo MK2s after the progressive withdrawal of Volvo B57 buses with the purchase of Volvo MK4s in 1995. Toa Payoh, Bedok, Tampines and Pasir Ris feeders had the Scania N113 CRB replacement instead.
Service 170 started to have progressive Volvo B57
Volvo MK2 WA redeployments only in early 1993. In 2001, all switched to Volvo MK3 AC buses overnight
Not sure about service 177 and Bt Panjang feeders though, they still had Volvo B57s until these services were taken over by Tibs in mid 1995. Not sure whether Volvo MK2 WA were used before.
Services 11, 77, 91, 151, 156, 191 started to have Volvo MK2s too after these services were downgraded to PAC in 1998 -
And when handed over to Tibs, new buses like Hispano Bendy 2nd batch and Habits too, all started with service 190Originally posted by Scania:Also, on 190. (190 always get new bus from SBS, Mk2, Merc, Mk3, LOs, VOs). -
Service 75 had MK-IIs and somwtimes you get to see those NACs at ORchard in the mid 1990s, but now.
Times have changed. -
CAC Volvo MKIIs maybe still gotOriginally posted by tintinspartan:Service 75 had MK-IIs and somwtimes you get to see those NACs at ORchard in the mid 1990s, but now.

Yeah... last time orchard road got such buses on sv 174, 190 and 390
-
U forgot abt sv 33Originally posted by TIB1018B:Subsequent Volvo MK2s were deployed on services 1 (withdrawn), 62, 75, 105, 189, 190, 390 etc. They were new buses which was bought in 1988-1989 to replace mainly the Albion Viking Soon Chow buses. A number of MKII DM buses were used.
I think the old sv 185 (CCK-Shenton) oso got
After the Volvo MKII NAC then came the Scania CRBs (inclusive of AC buses) followed by the MB0405s (also inclusive of AC buses) At this stage all the different variants of old Soon Chow buses made a disappearence -
Merz AC 190 only lasted for a short whileOriginally posted by Scania:A good number of them were perm on 170. Also, on 190. (190 always get new bus from SBS, Mk2, Merc, Mk3, LOs, VOs). until the Volvo MK3s came in 
-
With Volvo B57s withdrawn, Sv385 started having mk2s and a few of the mk2 DMs were from Sv83(Perm marking was still there in the past)
-
The old Service 5 (Bt Panjang-Lor 1 geylang); 172 (Old & New), 176, 177 & defuct 202(Buona Vista to Jalan Anak Bukit) in SBS time used to have some Mk2s as well.

Don't think service 174 had DM Volvo MK2 buses before, only WA Volvo MK2 models were on service 174 in the early days.
SBS1701E, SBS1702C, SBS1708L - SBS1715R were DM buses. -
If i remember correctly sv 174 tat time was under BBDEP when it used such buses.Originally posted by TIB1018B:Don't think service 174 had DM Volvo MK2 buses before, only WA Volvo MK2 models were on service 174 in the early days.

In 1993 sv 174 came under JRBP (now SLDEP), tat was when Volvo MKIIs were withdrawn from 174 n redeployed wif MB0405 buses.
But I think sv 174 had a CAC Volvo MKII cameo from SLDEP before. -
