Shuffling of buses
-
According on (29/3)Saturday's bus spotting:
SBS 3758D, formerly on 135, served 133
SBS 307S, formerly on 105, served 133
Also, ..
While I was observing Serivce 105 yesterday, some of the Volvo Mk 4 DM 3500 weren't on serivce. They might have gone to serve 66 or other feeder svcs in Jurong East. Or, they might have been kept in the depot. They are SBS 2708E, SBS 2751D, SBS 2752B, SBS 2787 B. -
SBS 9624 and SBS 9637 on Service 28?? This is quite rare!
-
Well , I guess those buses sub the VSO buses . Those VSO buses probably with other services ? .
9808 a bus 76 bus was with bus 21 yesterday . -

Erm, Yanxin, Sv. 334 has been using DM3500 Mk IV buses since November/December last year!(or was it 333?)

Shuffling of buses caught on 31/03/2003:
SBS 984 L on Service 153, formerly Service 9
SBS 9360 C on Svc 153, formerly Service 82 -
are u all bus drivers...
-
I would like to say that all of us here are not bus drivers. We are just a group of bus 'hobbyists', and we like buses a lot.Originally posted by Mazohyst:are u all bus drivers... -
Shuffling of buses between routes controlled by same depots is rather common, IMO.
-
On one Sunday, I saw SBS 1741 on Svc 32, formerly on Svc 285.
Another time was a bus on Svc 99, formerly on Svc 200. -

Saw some shuffling of buses today:
SBS 447X on 88, formerly Svc 105
SBS 9168 on 88, perhaps as cameo. ('Owner' of the bus is 25)
SBS 9148A on Svc 88, previously Svc 8
SBS 9000S was seen on Svc 56. It seems that it is going to stay put on Svc 56 for good.
SBS 3620 was seen on Svc 90, formerly Svc 155 -
Also, SBS 9803 is back on Svc 28.
-
Hmmm , bus 8 has VSO for only 1 day , quite strange .
-
It seems that TIBS is also shuffling buses madly at this time. These few days, at least a few Dennis Lance 245s like TIB 940 are found on 969 after the introduction of VSOs on 168. Do u consider that an improvement to the bus fleet, apart that they are "low-floor", to try to compete with VSOs on 168.
At the same time, most of the Dennis Lance 245s on 852 had disappeared suddenly, so I guess its probably to other services, and some Lance 211s that were formerly on 980 and 169 like TIB 1014 are back on 852
The trunk services seem at Yishun seems to be taking turns in deploying Nissan U31s. Firstly, TIB 374 was seen on 851, another U31 on 852 the next day, Today a U31 TIB 365 reappeared on 855.
However, it seems that more Volgren Bendys are deployed on 969 during morning peak, and I also saw one of those on 859 on Tuesday morning at Yishun. Is the sudden shuffle due to the sudden deployment of all the 49 VSOs or what?

re: SHUFFLING OF BUSES
this is to be expected as sbst needs to move buses around due to the new VSOS and the leyland oly 2x going out. at any rate one thing that is not clear is why the VSOs are being shuffled and shuffled and shuffled aorund.
definately all the VO 2 x will be ending up at Boon lay (soon lee depot).
