WA Mercs, LAs and LO2x were used for 187. BBDEP also used to control 187 in the past. The LAs on 187 came from mostly BBDEP and LO2x/WA Mercs from JRBP. -

Service 77 was all the way FAC service in the '90s. After 1997/1998, it was converted to the PAC service after most of the feeder services in the islandwide was converted from NAC fleet to PAC fleet. And 77 got some of the NAC merczs.
Nope, that was because in 1998 SBS wanted to deploy full fleet AC on the more popular bus routes. Services like 2, 7, 12, 27, 30, 143, 166 etc were converted to FAC. As such services like 77 as well as 6, 79, 90, 138, 151, 156, 175 etc were converted to PAC. Feeder services only started getting PAC one year later when the NAC Volvo MK2s, Scania N113CRBs and Mercs were converted to CAC.And I remembered service 77 converted back to FAC in Jan 2000 just before it was handed over to Tibs in Jun that year

it occured because there was no more requirement for aircon service for svs with longer waiting time. -

If I am not mistaken service 187 for a start was under full JRBP, after which it came under full BBDEP. Btw Volvo MK3s ever did service 187 as well? -
Scania BR112DH double decker demo use to operate in service 10 or 30 from old jurong interchange to Bedok interchange. I took it for a joy ride during my school holiday in the later 80s and early 90s. This bus has the same feeling as today Scania buses which the engine sound like the n113crb, not really as comfort as the 0305s DD. But it better than all leyland DDs that time. Volvo DDs that time was on service 7 and 65. I like the volvo DD that operate on service 7 it very smooth. I also had taken volvo DD that had a front engine on service 65, the driver complained very noisy and hot and the shake like leyland DD bus, I discovered it had the same gear changes as leyland. Still that time it was the merc 0305 the best DD bus I had taken. It use to operate on Toa Payoh service 143. I think the service 143 had 4 or 5 merc 0305 the rest is leyland DDs that time when the bus is new. And it the only merc DDs operated from Toa Payoh bus terminal in the early 80s, before later years service 26 came to join in at the new toa payoh interchange. I taken it to my school.

the Volvo B55 Alisa was considered a rare item
Not many operators in Asia got it afaik
-
Volvo b55 Alisa ver rare indeed. I remenber it look and sound like a volvo b57 with a extra sitting 2nd level. I wonder which bus deport it attached to ? Most of the Merc 0350s DD seems comming from the west side deport and most volvo buses seems comming from the east side deport. Toa Payoh had all the leyland buses from SD to DDs.

245 was absorbed into 78 (prev post case).if I'm not wrong, 175 was eventually withdrawn partly due to Sv 99. Wonder wat was it's final route
Route of Service 175:
When the Service shortened to Bt Batok on 6 Nov 1989:
Bt batok int, Bt Batok Cttrl, Bt Batok West Ave 3, Bt Batok Rd, Jurong Rd, PIE, Jurong Rd, Upp Jurong Rd, Jln Ahmad Ibrahim Rd, Tuas West Rd, Pioneer Rd and Tuas Rd (Loop)
Return via Upp Jurong Rd, PIE, Jurong Rd, Bt Batok Rd, Bt Batok West Ave 3, Bt Batok Ctrl, Bt BAtok Int.
When the Service was amended to loop at Jurong West St 91 on 7 Jul 1990, the day after teh Boon Lay MRT Station opens:
Bt Batok Int, Bt Batok Ctrl, Bt Batok West Ave 3, Bt Btok Rd, Jurong Rd, PIE, Upp Jurong Rd, Jurong West St 72, Jurong West Ave 5, Pioneer Rd North, JUrong Wst St 91 (Loop)
Return via Jurong West St 92, St 91, Pioneer Rd North, Jurong West Ave 5, Jurong West St 72, Upp Jurong Rd, PIE, Jurong Rd, Bt batok Rd, Bt Batok West Ave 3, Bt Batok Ctrl, Bt Batok Int.
However, in this case, the withdrawal reasons for 175 was not because of the amendments of 99. Only service 242 used to ply along Jurong West St 72 and Ave 5. This service, together with 188 was withdrawn on 20 Jan 1991 to minimise route duplcation.
To enhance the areas of Jurong West New Town (focusing on Jurong West St 72 and Ave 5), service 99 from Clementi was amended to serve Jurong West St 72 and Ave 5 on 19 May 1991, just 4 months after the withdrawal of 175 and 188. -
seems like AIRCON 192 was designed to take on 175's route.
Sadly 175 could have been kept for now. But wonders abt the load back then

192 was still NAC when the service was amended on 7 Jul 1990.
In its previous era (pre-Boon Lay Int, between 6 Nov 1989 to 30 Jun 1990), this service used to operate from 0630-0900 and 1430-1900 on weekdays (for saturdays, 0630-0900 and 1200-1630) and no operation on sundays & PHs.
Tuas Ter, Pioneer Rd, Tuas Cres, Tuas Ave 20, Pionerr Rd, Tuas Ave 8, Ave 9, Ave 12, Ave 1, Ave 3, Tuas Rd, Upp Jurogn Rd, Jln Boon Lay, Boon Lay Ave, Boon Lay Dr, Corportion Rd, Corporation Dr, KAng Ching Rd, Yuan Ching Rd, Boon Lay Wsy (Loop)
Return via Corportaion Rd, Boon Lay Dr, Boon Lay Ave, Jln Boon Lay, Upp Jurong Rd, Tuas Rd, Pioneer Rd, Tuas Cres, Tuas Ave 20, Pioneer Rd, Tuas Ave 8, Ave 9, Ave 12, Ave 1, Avr 3, Tuas Rd, Pioneer Rd, Tuas Ter
Between 1 to 6 Jul 1990, the route still remains the same, except for a slight amenement to and from Boon Lay Int via Boon Lay Wsy.
From 7 Jul 1990 onwards, the route becae:
Boon Lay Int, Boon Lay Way, Jln Boon Lay, Upp Jurong Rd, Jln Ahmad Ibrahim, Tuas West Rd, Pioneer Rd and Tuas Rd (Loop)
Return via Upp Jurong Rd, Jln Boon Lay, Boon Lay Way, Boon Lay Int.
By this route information, it is clear that the stretch of Tuas West Rd, Pioneer Rd and Tuas Rd was previously used by 175. It was known that 192 had skipped the entire avenues in Tuas and continues its route via Tuas West Rd. -

However, in this case, the withdrawal reasons for 175 was not because of the amendments of 99. Services 241 and 242 used to ply along Jurong West St 72 and Ave 5. This service, together with 188 was withdrawn on 20 Jan 1991 to minimise route duplcation.
To enhance the areas of Jurong West New Town (focusing on Jurong West St 72 and Ave 5), service 99 from Clementi was amended to serve Jurong West St 72 and Ave 5 on 19 May 1991, just 4 months after the withdrawal of 175 and 188.I thought 99 (& 242) were amneded because of new route 243.

I believe part of the 165 route from the Clementi to Boon Lay stretch duplicates the MRT.
165 did not pass by CLE MRT when it terminated @ JUR (& then BNL). It went down CLE Rd, AYE and then on to BNL. I suspect it duplicated 30 or 154 so it was cut short. It was made to ply C'wealth Ave West when it terminated @ CLE. -

77 & 131 were downgraded in mid-98 when the 1st round of FAC conversion started. I remember 14, 99, 106, 147 & 166 were no longer served by 2-axle DDs thereafter. Later on most Shenton Way routes became FAC. 10, 131 & 196 joined 100 as FAC routes in 1999. -

service 243 was purely introduced as a new feeder service in 1993, to extend its coverage around Jurong West (st 75, st 81). Hoever, both 99 and 242 were not amended as they still serve the ave 5 and st 72 sector and does not result in the introduction of 243. -

But 70, 107, 186 remains PAC until 2003, when LO2x were withdrawn, VO2x were transfer to SLBP and 107 became HGDEP.
28 was still PAC, during the SBST times, in 2002, when the service receives a new batch of VSO, then the service was made FAC. -
===== THE SHIFT TO BOON LAY BUS INTERCHANGE ON 1 JULY 1990 =====
Boon Lay Bus Interchange (aka Blk 699/699A) commences its operations on 1 Jul 1990. The main focus of the interchange is basically connects to the new Boon Lay MRT Station which opened to the public on 6 Jul 1990.
Its suggestions from the public in the past had paid-off and was in a due consideration that a new interchange to be erected, when the MRT was still under construction in 1988-89. The new interchange in Boon Lay became a virtue to the residents of the new satellite town in Jurong West/Boon Lay area. However, its existing Jurong Interchange which was opened on 1 JUne 1978 as part of the Jurong Bus Rationalisation was proven useful and strategically loacted at Jurong Port Rd. Jurong Interchage became an integrated hub with a well-organised bus service (you may wish to refer back to this thread on Rationalisation of Jurong Bus Service article)
As the Jurong West New twon being developed in rapid stages during the period of 1980s, Jurong Interchange would became out of step as time goes by. Those commuters from Jurong West would have to take a bus down to Jurong Int and transfer another bus to their workplace in Tuas/Jurong Ind Estates. In the past, the Jurong Interchange served the public well as it was then a bustling interchange with shipyardds, factrories and industrial estates surrounding the Jurong area as that part of Boon Lay still undeveloped. With the new Boon Lay Int and the direct connection to the MRT, commuters had welcomed the move and was pleased with the new and spacious interchange that SBS had undertaken to improve the standards on its bus services.
It is also noticed that Jurong Interchange had constructed an annex to expand its passenger concourse to ease the passenger flow by relocating its services to different berths in 2 phases on 30 Nov and 7 Dec 1987.
We take an overview of the major changes in the Jurong Trunk services, Industrial & Residential feeder services

Seems like 254 was later amended to serve bigger coverage of Tuas.I believe 192 was initally peak hr sv was because Tuas was still under developed then
