make it clear for u. there is a great dispute that SBS8033D had cloned out SBS8031J and SBS8033D did not clear out the misunderstanding, and instead, run away from the trouble.

You are genius! You seemed to know what is a LO2x when you're so young and also the first year in ops of SBS9888Y. You have a good memory.Why don't you mention when you took the rest of the demostrators as well?

I can also remember taking DM OAC Merz with blue fur seats on Service 31 from my home to Tampines when I was 6 years old and also a LO2x or O305 on 28. Somehow when I was younger I can already sense those really old good days would be gone. I can also remember the days of HGDEP controlling Services in Bedok. Those days I took lots of Mark IV DM and Mark II CAC on Service 9 and lots of Mark IIIs on Service 18. -

Well,by chance, I stumbled on SBS2888T with foldable seats in 2000 while shopping with grandparents in Geylang Serai. We were waiting for Sv 7 to come and indeed came, but saw this new bus with EDS. So, i begged them to let me have a try on it. So we boarded SBS2888T.
I remembered the first time I rode a VSO on Chartered Service for NDP. It was quite a good ride. I did remembered bringing my cousins and my aunt onboard Citybuzz while they were just brand new. Joyrided C1 and C2 with them.
For SBS998Y, i didn't manage to board it but manage to see it in action in 2003 and 2001 doing Sv 18 and Sv 290 respectively.
I only saw SBS999U in 2004 while coming back home from fishing. It looked simillar to SMRT Volgren bendies except the fact that it is older. Never rode it unfortunately.
The LO2x were deployed on all JIS services, Sv 242, Sv 243, Sv 154 and a few others while i was living in Jurong West. The sounds were awesome, i must say. As a young schoolboy who grew up with them, i fell in love with them. It's sad to see them gone when i came back in 2003 to deliver a letter to someone in Pioneer with my mom.
For SBS1688K, i only rode it on May 1 2007 as i never stumble on it during my childhood.
TIB1024H lived with me for a long time, being a perm bus on Sv 913. I first saw it on Sv 187 in 2001. The same year, it got redeployed to my feeder route, Sv 913. Been a perm eversince.
For those who want to ask about the old Sembawang Road End Terminal or the old Woodlands Interchange (near CIQ), just drop me a PM and i'll try my best to explain it to you all.

You're really trying to show your "seniority" down here... =.="Since you really want to have a in-depth introduction. Where is SBS8033D, SBS8031J, SBS9810X, SBS997A etc?

Circle bus = WA
Square bus = DM
Triangle = Strider?When I'm 4 yrs old I only know the bus, the shape then is: "this bus is *sound* only can sit on bus 165, 74. Some *sound*....blah blah blah"
I just sound here sound there only. And I only can recognise by rims.

no lah.. Circle bus - mostly MB0405 with circle handgrip. Square bus - B9 with square handgrip. Triangle bus - K230 with triangle handgrip. My house there got Sv 76/268/269 with these few types of buses mah.. I dun think my son know what is B9, what is K230 but he do recognize the buses from the shape/design/EDS. Think only tintinspartan know the rego/make/feature of buses when he is 4 years old. i think i only know how to play with see saw/toys when i am 4 years old :) -

You seems to have diary at home, remembering all the svc, where you board, the date you board. *CLAP*
Even me, the date where i board 8031J, I cant even rem. And its the first day on the road. I believe quite a number of people cant even remember the date of boarding the bus. -
