  Nicely done. SBS547R was on S59 today.
  
  I saw SBS8165G along Loyang avenue towards Bishan with passengers, EDS displaying OFF SERVICE, at about 9.45am. I was on SBS8167B on the ooposite side then.

  EDIT: Heard SBS8162P was also on S53 today, doing S-shift.

  Wasn't able to keep track which bus was off 53 today. =D

  Something I noticed was that most of the K230s doing 53 were required to paste their "Shortfall List" - Does it mean inspection checklist for the bus? on the bus.

  Wonder if it was the same for all other services that had K230 on their first days.

  SBS 8148G was a first day cameo.

  Yesterday got 3 buses.

  Today got 4.

  I have a feeling SBS 8154M took M/C today.

  There's no crossover buses between S225 & S228. S225 buses over swop with S228 whenever those CRBs on S225 needed to go for Preventive Mentainence (or what some people call suyou), because all S225 S-shifts are DD blocks. BNDEP wanted to make sure that the DDs will operate during S-shifts.

  S-shifts buses start at around 3 pm or so. But the demand for 225 may be high during the lunch hour. DDs should also operate on 225 during the lunch hour. It is quite all right for 222 because the DDs for 222 operate full day and 5  222/30e MKIVs operate only during S-shift.

  S225G has got one E-shift, which departs bndep at about 1202hours.
