we are only interested in one or two of the full-day OC's.
but of course, we must assume duty code/block number is in ascending or descending order in the first place, which is the case for sv851. it sometimes won't happen for SBST due to a variety of reasons, so it is not possible to track like this for some services in this manner. -

This question would probably date back a long time ago...
Many years back there was this TIBS OAC merc that had a set of lights just behind the last row of seats. This set of lights would flicker on and off in colours of red and blue, and of course, looks very beautiful at night. Rego of bus is TIB 582U (ex-perm Sv854).
A few questions...
1) What was the main purpose of installing this set of flickering lights at the back of the bus? Because it didn't seem like it was put there to signal to motorists; if not every bus would have that flickering lights too...
2) When was it taken off the bus and why so?Thanks... I'm hoping there would be somebody who can answer this mystery...

I still vaguely remember that some DAFs were fitted with those lights too ... ... -
why is that for example:
svc 8 and 90. Starting point is Gulab Bldg, Macpherson Road. Destination is TPY Int. Both use the entire same route. Why is the price different?

Huh? Need so many? For what purpose?SBS 8009A and SBS 8015G are both pretty easy to catch. I'm not going to give the timing though, but an average full journey on Service 42 will take about 25 mins.
Hope you can do the math and get the buses you want to catch.

They should be pretty durable. If not other bendy buses around the world in service longer then the SMRT bendies we have would have split into half :D
