  For buses parking overnight, if the other bus comes in (instead) of the original, does that mean the bus will do that service tommorow?

  eg TIB970H ends its shift at Sembawang (for this week I suppose) but I come back with TIB624H so does that mean I'll start TIB624H tomorrow on 980? Sorry if this is a basic question I just want to understand more about buses parked overnight.

  Jumpbus usually mean for arrival/ departure from Int based on schedules.

  Literally one bus in (arr), one bus out. Or there's another bus in between.

  Jumpbus is a bus is not fixed to a bus driver, so he may take a longer break and "jump" to the bus behind him.

  The MAN (SMB138Y) seems to be longer than 12m according to some estimates, though the chassis itself is of a 12m bus spec.

  But what is the exact specs???

  It may look longer but it may be deceiving.

  Just like SBST Mercedes Benz O405s, the WA ones looks longer than the DM ones, but actually they are the same.
