  Nope. SBS Transit would have extended it in July if they wanted to, whereas some buses from the September batches had been given extensions

  SBS Transit always like to let AC Volvo Olympians run until the end of their lifespans.

  I like that... they don't waste their high capacity resources... But I wonder why the unfair treatment to the Tridents... HGDEP keeps so many of them spare.

  Most probably it was confused with the other three regos that were stated in one of the recent redeployment posts, and out of the four regos, SBS7275D is the one redeployed to SLBP 246 and not awaiting de-registration.

  Seven buses down...

  27 Aug 13, 22:38

  So on sg wiki, someone edited the page to show that service 246 is the only service now with perm VO2x. Any idea the replacements for the VO2x on other JIS?

  9241M still spotted on 161 yesterday, most probably the oldest bus in HGDEP.

  Wonder which bus to take over in a weeks time.

  Only 1 NAC in perm operation. 246 demand will be high for all those to take ride on the sole NAC before it de-regs
