  I checked out SBS9888Y vehicle details on one motoring and it is still there(which means that it hasn't been deregistered yet?):

  From one motoring: 

  Vehicle Model :	B10TL (A)
  Chassis No. :	YV3S1E112XC050063
  Engine No. :	D10A308113
  Engine Capacity :	9603 cc
  Maximum Laden Weight:	23300 kg
  Unladen Weight:	15690 kg
  Year Of Manufacture:	1999
  Original Registration Date:	01 Nov 1999
  Lifespan Expiry Date :	31 Oct 2016
  Road Tax Expiry Date :	31 Oct 2010
  Inspection Due Date :	30 Apr 2010

  I wonder if this bus still has the chance to hit the roads again or not???

  184 - About 40 mins to 1 hr (loop)

  961 - 3 hr plus (to-n-fro)

  966 - 2 hr plus (loop)

  911 

  [Woodlands Int > St 82/83 > Woodlands Int] Takes about 20~30minutes
  [Woodlands Int > St 13 > Checkpoint > Woodlands Int] Takes about 25 ~ 30minutes

  Total timing should be 1 hour to complete the following 2 which is 1 round, same apply for 912 & 913.

  960 ar...if i remember correctly, should be around 70min to 80min per trip depending on what period. so it's around 140min to 150min.

  Saw a WAB like bus but does not look like a KUB at all, parked along the workshop in SBST Braddell Depot, while travelling along CTE.

  Is there another new demonstrator coming up for SBST?

  961 takes about 2 hour plus, not 3.

  966 should be about 2 hours, not more than that.

  Sure, That will cost more, and don't come cheap though.

  2-98 gone case already, I see the damage I know already.

  Its still technically possible. You can always put another type of body; doesn't have to be Volgren. The main point of consideration is

   

  1. Is the chassis still structurally safe for use?

  2. Would it be cost effective to rebuild the bus?

   

  But if SBS do rebuild 9888Y in a new bodywork, it will be like a phoenix, rising in a new life after a fiery demise. :)

  I am not sure if this question has been asked before, for SBST x-depot practices, can a perm BB 99 driver with his bus gets dispatched to do other services with his bus in AR such as 132 with his bus?

  Lets say SBS 9373 R/8376P is perm 99/157, can the BC who is perm driving that bus takes along with it to start for AR 132 or AM 24? ( Just an example, As I know AM/BR ,BB/AR drivers gets dispatched around, (not sure if they get their bus that they start with)

  Hi i have a question here regarding SMRT Bus Svc NR1. I want to board Svc NR1 at Braddell Road towards RWS . I know that the last bus departs the bus stop at Braddell Rd at 4.10am . My destination is River Valley Rd (Liang Court ) However , I checked upon LTA 's Public Transport.sg website and noticed that buses leaving RWS after 2.12am will TERMINATE at Yishun Ring Rd . So are there NR1 Svcs available after 2.15am ? Like 4am , along Braddell Road towards RWS . Thanks in advance
