The number of remaining MK3s is less than the number of un-registered Citaros.

They refer to shifts. For example, 5S means 5 split shift buses everyday.
Oh thanks for the clarification.

Originally posted by SBS 3010C:

P - PM shift
S - Split shift
E - Some call it "Extended". Works about the same way as S shift. Difference is that shorter hours in morning (1st leg) and longer hours for afternoon (2nd leg), and that E shift has mealbreak.
T - TQ in SMRT. Generally means "three-quarters". Some drivers call it the "Start late, end early" shift. -

You too. Thanks! -
Some questions to ask:-
1. Is SBS897E the bus that replaced SBS1992G for service 159?
2. After SBS8071T left service 165, replacement is one of the WEGs from BBDEP?

Actually I think you did not get my point. I don't think the two depots will have more Citaros. There were 103 MK3s left compared to 126 un-registered Citaros, I think the extra 23 might be 'shared' among the depots, otherwise it is a depot getting the most share than the others.

Very strange. 22/136 crossover for Wrights is no longer available.

i think the last citaros will be used to replace the first batch of MKIV DM instead...

897E is not replacing 1992G; in fact 1992G has been missing for almost 6 months at a time iirc. 909E 2675R 2608K came in for 1992G and the 2 experm mk3s. Should be like this i presume. 897 no idea for what.

Don't forget that some of the MK3s were deregistered without extension after reaching its lifespan of 17 years. The EEV K230UBs could have replaced them 2 years back. So I believe that they are surplus Citaros which landed up in AMDEP/BRBP and SLBP and deployed on services like 24, 52, 53, 56, 66, 131, 138 etc.

SBS2675R doesn't seems to be perm HGDEP 159 at all. I believe it is SBS925H that came in instead...

BBDEP have the most MK3s then, because of JB services 160/170.

Heh oh yes! Copy from wiki unknowingly. Er 2675 is with 103 now almost everyday. Ya i believe 925H is one the replacement for someone also.
