Yes, some SMRT services that ply along Little India do have additional PM shifts on Sundays and PH. Eg like 67, 851, 980.Not sure about SBST services though.

87 goes FULL SD on sundays. so if you exclude the cow, you can get 10 cameos on sundays.
89 has more SDs on weekends. Sometimes they use the 89e buses, other times they get buses from dont know where..For Sat, 4 out of 13 buses are DD (3 out of 4 do overnight parking). Add 89e and the 2 perm 89 buses in, you can get 2 cameos.For Sunday, its 3 DDs out of 11 buses (those 3 park overnight). so by right if as above, you get... 1 cameo. lol.
That E shift is a single deck block although 9024Z is still assigned to that block.
From wat I notice for 89 this weekend is almost full SD fleets, some MK4s from 163 were roped in. I believe there's some adjustments in the weekend fleet when 89e were introduced wif DDs.80 had some weekend fleet adjustments too. Wif perm kubs, nowdays it gets kubs from 27 or 100 on weekends in order to meet the WAB status.

any service getting a perm KUB really opened the doors for many more KUBs cameo on the service

9400X on 87 today as usual though it's a sunday
-
No bendy perm on 180 today.

Question: How many bendies are deployed on 963 during weekends? As I hardly spot them on the road, but only rigids.

Service 80 also do get extra K230UBs from services 27 and 100 too.Service 87 would take Volvo MK4s from either services 100 or 105. Sometimes spare Volvo MK3s will be deployed too.
Service 89 would take Volvo MK4s mainly from service 163 as well as 159. There was also once when K230UB appeared on service 89 one sunday.
Service 62 will also get extra K230UBs from services 27 and 100 too, replace the DD fleets.
