  It cannot be laid up as stated in Buses SGwiki as i have seen it many times on the road on AM DD services and it was running on Premium 548 today.
  
  ACx

  
  I saw it on 58 a few wks back.

  Can anyone post the exact timings of route 855’s Mercedes Citaro when it leaves Yishun Interchange? Also, is the MAN already a permanent bus on route 961, and if so, what are the timings when it departs Woodlands?

  I tried catching either bus today with no success.

  
  Saw SMB136C waiting to turn inside Harbourfront Int jus nw at 520pm.Nt sure if it came wif pax or off svc cuz the bus was totally empty and the EDS was showing 855 twds HBF.I am also looking for it's timings but nt able to get them so far.

  some time back in december i used iris to check the next bus's arrival timing on 174 and it happened that the next bus was a Wright but the WAB status wasn't reflected on iris. anyone has similar encounters or perhaps the Wright was cameoing on a non-WAB slot?

  Gemilang. Gemilang was a Volgren licensee. 

  OT: You heard it from me at Facebook about TIB905Y on 925 right? LOL
