  Frankly speaking I don't think it's very "healthy" to the SLs to have route changes almost every few months.

  When any 920/922 bus breakdown, they'll just take any bus available?

  I ever rode on TIB636Z on 922 when it did 700 on the previous trip.

  Yeah. Just like the bendy (TIB1132D) who did 920 but still holding on the 180 timesheet the other time.

  The manpower line-up for svc 920 and 922 are PRC SLs.  Those good old folks i.e. 71162 (WL feeder STBY), 72030 (964), 72031 (913), 10102 (178), etc will not be coming back to 920/922 as perm drivers.

  Oceane is referring to SMB16R slated to be deployed to 75 TQ duty with 4 supplementary (a.k.a x-over) trips of svc 920 from 0815-1136hrs before going back to 75, provided there is no last min changes.

  Any bus fans spotted this bus on svc 920 in the morning?

  Yah I saw it. I was at BP Interchange waiting for either 75 or 184 to NP, then I saw that bus doing 920. I thought its 75.

  Assuming no change...

  Premium 590
  Duty: 970S102
  Perm bus: TIB 0809S
  Timesheet details: 1 downroute trip of 300 starting from CCK Ave 3, followed by Premium 590, after reaching Shenton Way it continues 970 as normal. (includes Swing)

  Premium 599
  Duty: 167S151
  Perm bus: TIB 0917M (Usually)
  Timesheet details: 1 trip of 969 from WRI to TAM, followed by Premium 599, after reaching Shenton Way it continues 167 as normal. (includes Swing)

  Premium 587 perm bus has been changed to TIB 0535G from TIB 0541M, the latter is back to it's ex-perm service 920. Does 1 trip of 901 before doing Premium 587, thereafter it ends shift and returns to depot.

  You may want to read more about them here: http://www.sgwiki.com/wiki/SMRT_Premium_Services though I don't really understand what he meant when he edited the Premium 546 portion.

  Wait, if TIB535G will do the 901/587 shift, then i wonder... who replaces TIB535G and TIB971E on 969?

  I think this topic is a little bit side-tracked from svc 920.

  However, answering to your query about my edited post on PBS 546 on sgwiki:

  Crossover from YIDEP 853
  Reduction from 2 trips to 1, withdraw supplementary from KJDEP 985

  Originally, when PBS 546 was first introduced, there were 2 trips departing Blk 73 Geylang Bahru @ 0825 (supplemented by KJ's 985S101) & 0835 (by YIDEP's 853S203).

  Due to "changing demands" as quoted by SMRT, the 0835 trip will be withdrawn effective from 20 Oct 08, leaving the one and only trip departing 0825 which is served by YIDEP's 853S203.

  Btw, the official terminology for "crossovers" is supplementary trips, that is why I wrote supplementary instead of "crossover" or "x-over".

  Hope this clarifies.
