  They are not officially lay up from 1M website yesterday. Did you smuggle yourself into KJDEP? How much do you know about such things? CSS189D isn't on lay up.

  Oh man.here goes CSS195K.i still remember that i took it with scania N113CRB lov3r a few months ago and it sped almost non-stop at lim chu kang.i still remember that we two were the only people onboard CSS195K at that time.the whole bus was screaming and vibrating as it sped and sped non-stop.and the driver seat was bouncing up and down like mad.the SL looked like a china guy.but he was quite polite.when we arrived at Lim chu kang terminal,he asked us nicely if we wanted to alight.then when we said no,he smiled at us and immediately continued the journey without even going to the toilet at lim chu kang terminal.then when we arrived at Bukit panjang,he smiled at us as we alighted.the bus aircon was fantastic too.i shall never forget that ride.one of the best rides i had.

  precisely. Who cares about K230s on whatever services. Who cares about OCs on whatever services? I would prefer cameos of UDs and N113s now..

  Merc O405s... maybe worry about that next year.. there's still about 500 left despite the deregistrations..

  Agreed.kub got 900 of them coming in.almost the whole island is going to be infested with them.so scared for what?if kubs are going to be scrapped also no need to be scared.just pick any svc and take.OC500LEs also got 132 of them coming in.so scared for what?i agree with you on the part of the cameos of UDs,N113s and merc.well said.

  You are right.SBS9684T's gallery got the info.it says that when CSS195K returned back to geylang lor 1,it marked the official end of 32 years of CSS svcs.very sad though.it can be a honoured bus.the same bus that marked the end of CSS,is laid up now.if i had known this earlier,i would have took a ticket of it when i joyrided it on 975 a few months ago.

  Add on CSS194M too.

  Hopefully all the Nissans go off asap. And looks like services 178 and 852 will face major redeployments by then . Maybe those ex-AMDEP and KJDEP's CAC Mercs ends up there.

  KJ ones should be going off first. Hope to see them gone ASAP.

  And also due to the fact that WLDEP got no more space to accomodate buses, those 20+ Nissans including the layup ones should be cleared off, in order for the new Merc OC500LEs to come in.

  Noooooooo, I did not even took a Nissan bus yet though! I remember my last Nissan ride was on Service 969. MAN, it rocks, speed like 80km on the Tampines Expressway...

  The OC500LEs are not being allocated to WLDEP not just because of inadequate parking space. If not, why are all the new OC500LEs parking there for equipment fitting before being dispatched? In fact it is KJDEP which is crammed.
