  If timings aren't possible, Fleet order should give a rough gauge, but I'm not sure if this is practiced.

  I need timings for the following buses:

  • TIB 838H
  • TIB 905Y
  • SMB 138Y
  • Any of the Citaro buses, but especially the production ones
  • Any of the refurbished Scania L113CRL ELBO buses
    

  
  905Y can try luck split shift.
  138Y is usually AP perm sv963.
  citaro best timing is during split shift period, almost all perm citaro will come out.
  elbo bus anytime, mostly on sv187.

  yr best caming area would be bpj, where u can get those i mentioned in one go.

  Depends. Some might call quits, some might do downroute or shoot to interchange, or like what the person above me said, get another bus.

  this means it does not start its trip at int.

  depends of svc. Some svc will do overnight parking at some interchange. Eg. 307 will do overnight parking at cck int, svc 965 buses can do overnight parking at woodlands int and 853 can do overnight parking at yishun int. Majority of the buses are parking at the respective depots allocated to each svc eg 190. Svc 190 SL will park their buses at KJDEP. Svc 858 SL will park their buses at WLDEP and Svc 851 SL will park their buses at AMDEP.

  Some svcs are fully controlled by a certain depot like 190,188,851,965,858 et cetra. You can refer to 

  sgbuses.com/wiki 

  for the deployments of buses, whether is it SMRT or SBST Buses.

  Happens for most SBST buses. They do not usually park overnight in bus interchanges.

  Mercedes-Benz O405G Hispano Carrocera MkII.

  Now does the MkII refer to the bodywork or the chassis?
