  SMB136C isn't really perm 855. It is just doing a 1-year trial with a temporary perm 855 on different slots...that might be the reason for it not having a fixed timetable now.

  But temporary perm is still perm right?

  As well as saying 487L is temp 187 perm....... 487L has been covering 844P's slot nowadays because 844P is undergoing refurbishment.

  It is NOT a perm, should be a SP. ALL buses have a FIXED timetable leaving the interchanges.

  You can go see SgWIki's Citaro page, the mods (a.k.a the senior bus fans) say it is perm 855 not SP. You can go ask them if you want to.

  And if it's SP, you should see the Citaro running around to other services.

  What's the use of being perm SP when it keeps sticking to 855. Do you even know what do SP buses do?

  Ya but its still perm 855 as even though it runs around on different slots (Like SBS7888K, which also runs around on different slots but still a 25 permer)

  Just like 1255H on 852 in the past, simply like to jump around on different slots each week.

  I think SBST got influenced by KMB for buying this short version KUBs.

  Hope they will not be here so soon, at least we can have a different variant of KUB by then.

  Also hope the front design can be like KMB 10.6/12 m KUBs instead of their own 1100 12m KUBs.

  My guess would be that they are for the purpose of marking. Markings for buses that have had something checked, likely to be axle/rims. Somewhat like how lifting equipments go for SWL checks from time to time.

  KMB uses Caetano, while SBST uses Gemilang. What do you think?

  Unless SBST wants to engage Caetano for the bodywork.
