Cycled down to Woodlands Depot tonight; apart from the usual buses-all-over-the-place scene (TIB 1250X being parked at least 200 metres away from the rear gate
), I
also managed to glimpse two Mercedes OC500LE buses parked deep
inside the depot, with the give way to buses and the bus lane
timing information signs up on their rear.Off topic: the overcrowding situation at Woodlands Depot is getting so bad that I won't be surprised if the buses launch a strike
. </not very serious>Woodlands Depot is actually meant to handle only about 190+ buses.
-
when will this buses be out?
-
Some info from SBS877M:-
SMB2E will be assigned to KJDEP, whereas SMB3C and SMB4A assigned to AMDEP. These buses will be on hold status for some time.
-
say.. 2E join 1H at 190 then 3C and 4A go do 851 or soemthing.. best case do the 969 xover hahaha..
-
One suggestion, since we cannot call SMB1H "SMB" anymore when the other units come out, maybe we can call them "1H", "2E", "3C" and "4A" etc.

2E, 3C & 4A are all inside KJDEP. Waiting for the green light from AMDEP so that 2 of them can go over. Meanwhile, there has been no notice of 851 undergoing Training yet. I will update when I get the information. -

Wah, SMRT bought a bulk of them, so you need to name them one by one 5Y 6U 7S 8P 9L 10G etc?If you always call N113CRBs, Volvo B10M Mark3 etc, why can't you just call those new buses OC500LE?
Sort your thinkings clearly. Don't make you ideas stink.

Update:SMB 3C & SMB 4A are now inside AMDEP. Driven over from KJDEP (likely temporary storage facility for AMDEP) last night.
Meanwhile, I'm trying to verify certain buses that might have left AMDEP as a result to accomodate space for the new buses...
No news from 851 currently, no word at all from Yishun RG staffs.

And for people who want to know which service is getting, I suggest for you to sit at home and wait instead of hallucinating. I know which services are getting, just that the notice at the respective locations have not been put up.

Word of advice: Either you keep mum or just tell the services. No point dangling carrot. Like that people will speculate more.
And you will have people keep chasing you for the news. -
