  i would classify 9826 as SP. 161 fleet unchanged.

  25 still has one hole from the departure of 9826B to 143 earlier..

  this afternoon one service 88 BC told me that SBS9424C has been de-registered for parts and the engine is damaged beyond repair. is this true? why can't they buy a new engine and  install into the bus?

  on top of serious engine damage, it looks like there is also chassis damage which really dealt a blow to its road-worthiness.

  refer to scania's post. likely to be converted to a mobile lab? anyway, this bus is still inside AMDEP at the same parking lot.
  Btw, most likely SBS313 and SBS321 will go shortly. Both are parked at the lay up corner at AMDEP with a A4 size paper on the windscreen..

  more like waiting for a aircon to be fitted. if no aircon, then might as well convert to NAC...whoa...if turn NAC then it's the first Batch 2 VO3x NAC!!!

  what is the a4 size paper for ?

  why they want to scrap the DM as well?

  i thought still got long way , i mean WA goes first what i thought

  I find amdep very clever.. go cannibalise the current Merc for spare parts.. at the same time get new buses in.. so that when the merc eventually retire, amdep need not kill all of them at one go because by then they have less than 300 units in amdep.. This is by rough estimates..

  Eh, which amdep did not need that at that point of time due to positive some reasons or others.....The first bus it cannibalized was 84J after its lifespan expired.

  Don't wish to go on further, if not history repeats itself.

  Ya, of course not as many as AMDEP does. Just that, was quite shocked for some other models like DM CAC.

  I would really miss the Merz O405's (CAC as well as OAC) if they are gone. They may be noisy from the outside but is quite and smooth inside. Airconditioning is quite cold and comfortable too.
